The kids have been working hard on creating their instruments, practicing thier vocal cords and making costumes to go along with their show
A few weeks ago they were supposed to perform in the carnival in Puerto Plata, but ended up getting rained out; they ended up performing at a pizza place instead.
They were a little disappointed at first about missing the carnival, but as the pictures show, they ended up having a blast.
.
The kids are really developing their talents, and having fun at the same time. They are improving thier team work skills, as well as their musical skills.
Cathy, our club director as well as Tadeo their music teacher, and Liz, DOVE's on ground founder, have all watched as the kids have come out of their shells and really began to show thier true colours.
It is DOVE's dream that these kids learn skills that they will be able to use in their lives to get jobs. One of the best ways to do this is to find out what the kids are good at, and draw on that to teach and help them learn. It is much easier to learn something when you enjoy what you are doing; and this is what DOVE is finding with the kids - they are picking up very quickly on what they are being taught because they LOVE it!
