ButI must ask, why Indian Chief?<BR/><BR/>You could always do YMCA sitting down! The schools I've been visiting all have special needs children. Pretty cool! <BR/><BR/>I saw a boy with Down Syndrome in one of the schools, happily enjoying the show, and another young girl in a wheelchair...Daphne Linghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15203105761769093793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6104866442810773739.post-50384446233601568492008-11-20T13:50:00.000-04:002008-11-20T13:50:00.000-04:00Hi Pak Zawi,<BR/><BR/>I love the wayang kulit, but I don't think it would really be that much of a hit, in terms of effectiveness.<BR/><BR/>The aim of the puppets is to have the children identify with them. That's why the puppets are life-size, and look like the different children here (mat salleh, african-american, asian etc).<BR/><BR/>The puppets are supposed to be the childrens' friends, so they would listen to the puppets' advice!<BR/><BR/>Chances here, children here wouldn't have ever heard of wayang kulit, so no go there!<BR/><BR/>But thanks for the advice anyhow...=)Daphne Linghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15203105761769093793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6104866442810773739.post-11475392163725944882008-11-20T13:46:00.000-04:002008-11-20T13:46:00.000-04:00Hey Akmal,<BR/><BR/>I doubt I would ever regret doing them too! I might groan about having to wake up so early, but I know the experience is just so amazing and I will have learnt so much by the end of my term...<BR/><BR/>Definitely worth looking back on one day!<BR/><BR/>Thanks...Daphne Linghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15203105761769093793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6104866442810773739.post-56102309140135256082008-11-20T13:44:00.000-04:002008-11-20T13:44:00.000-04:00Hi WP,<BR/><BR/>Yeap, it is very cute! I learnt we can never be a kid again, but there's nothing stopping us from being child-like (not childish, ar)! <BR/><BR/>Playing with puppets and enjoying them, is definitely childlike in my books, especially when you can help communicate with so many children...=)Daphne Linghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15203105761769093793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6104866442810773739.post-18558902445362019362008-11-20T13:43:00.000-04:002008-11-20T13:43:00.000-04:00Hello Kak Pi,<BR/><BR/>Lar, what lar I did until gigi menghilang?

I really am very sorry that I am unable to share a picture of the puppets. I wish I could too, because they are so cute!<BR/><BR/>You are welcome to google puppet programs here in Peterborough (and you will actually get to see the puppets!), but I cannot directly tell you which organisations I am in!<BR/><BR/>;)<BR/><BR/>I think you get the hint...Daphne Linghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15203105761769093793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6104866442810773739.post-75331762732297266122008-11-18T16:09:00.000-04:002008-11-18T16:09:00.000-04:00.. wah that's look like fun.Bittahttp://www.bittasden.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6104866442810773739.post-57018213304768777442008-11-18T10:36:00.000-04:002008-11-18T10:36:00.000-04:00hey, i wish i could dance to the tune of YMCA...and i'd be dressing like the indian chief...hehehehe...Kerp (Ph.D)http://www.blogger.com/profile/08187993712816646804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6104866442810773739.post-60854919444502693562008-11-18T02:51:00.000-04:002008-11-18T02:51:00.000-04:00Daph,<BR/>You should have taken some 'wayang kulit puppets' and improvise a show with a story suitable for them.
