Last Day

Today is my last day at the crisis nursery!! I spent the morning playing with the kids as usual, as well as feeding a caring for the 2 youngest babies. During play time we added to the nursery board, which is a collection of kids artwork based around that month's theme (which currently is "splash into summer time") After I made lunch, we put the kids down for a nap and cleaned the majority of the play area and the toys. Overall, an average day. 

I have loved my time at the crisis nursery and will take away a rich experience. Unlike some other students, I feel as though the work I was completing
- playing with kids or doing chores- was fully appreciated and made an impact in the lives of the children I was working with, as well as the nursery as a whole. The staff, volunteers and I became good friends over these past few weeks. I baked everyone brownies to show my appreciation for the work they put on everyday, but I'm looking forward to coming back and volunteering this summer as a way to truly express my gratitude for the goals and efforts of the crisis nursery!
