The communication game, led by Motus Danza

The objective of the creative laboratory for children is to stimulate respect for the differences and at the same time to motivate interaction and communication. A big painting will be created by all participants using different sheets of paper. Each child will get one sheet and will be asked to paint it. Everybody can paint whatever he wants, but should take in consideration also the paintings of the others. In fact, all painted sheets will be assembled to constitute a bigger painting that will be exposed as a single work. Therefore each participant should learn how to interact with the others and remain in communication in order to create a fluent dialogue of paintings and avoid gaps in between.
