Learning is fun!

Most of life has returned back to normal in West Sumatra. Students are back on campus and are going to in-person lessons.

The library that our SEEDS worker has in her home has been popular. Children read books and do educational games that will increase their abilities in logical thinking and hand-eye coordination. They enjoy making drawings from posters of plants and animals and then proudly display their work on the wall in the library. One day, three boys diligently finished a puzzle, even after all their friends had left, showing their dedication to complete the task. Adults and children are able to check-out books to take home to read.

They also have opportunity to study English which will help them in their classes and in their future lives. Learning English from a native speaker can help them to have more opportunities in the future.

One young girl who has difficulty with her memory comes often and receives focused personalized attention. Her mother is very happy that the girl is able to spend time at the library.
