Hello everyone. This morning, me and my co-parent started packing some vitamins, cough and cold medicines, notebooks, pencils, crayons and soaps. These came from donation from each students of the grade school department. We will be having an outreach for 150 underprivileged kids this Saturday afternoon. Some volunter Senior High School will be with us on Saturday to help facilitate the kids. We will be having a film showing, games and activities. We will also prepare food for their snacks. What kind of games do you think we should let them play?

What a lovely thing to do. I hope you have a lot of fun. I'm so out of date with children's games that i don't think I should make any recommendations. Hopefully others will have a lot of suggestions for you.

@JudyEv I think everybody should do a good deed even if it is simple or not. For us, we just want to share something with them.

@JudyEv really true. Also we task a group of mother in the same community where the kids live to be in charge of the kids food for Saturday. That way we will also be giving them opportunity.

@rakski There are many quite simple things that individuals can do to brighten the lives of others not so fortunate.

that is good, but who bought the medicines? will there be a doctor or nurse to give out the meds?

there will be no doctors. The medicines we bought are ascorbic acid, mutlivitamins and paracetamol. All syrup since they are kids. These medicines are very basic needs of kids especially a lot of children nowadays in a very hot weather acquire illnesses. This is just an outreach. But we are planning to have a medical and dental mission too. But we have to talk first to some doctors and dentist.

@ridingbet I think there will be a muclolytic syrup which is basically for cough but it is not yet there when we do the packing. I am not sure if we will have later this day or none at all.

@rakski that is good to know. cough syrups have their own indications. there are mucolytics, cough suppressants, bronchodilators, etc etc, that is why i asked, because you stated something about cough and cold medicines.

Good initiatives One good game will be hangman. Rewards to be given for the group if they manage to get everything correctly. (Which should be easy enough that they are able to do so eventually?)

You can let them play color matching, ludo, scrabble, and such other indoor games. Indoor games will help you to keep an eye on all of the kids while they will enjoy sitting in a place.
