►【活動報告】:(台東卑南)薑心比心工作坊:(盡請期待 Coming soon!)

帶著滿滿的禮物與期待,我們踏上前往卑南的旅程。為了讓孩子們擁有最真實的節慶驚喜,這次特別邀請當地的一位工作人員裝扮成聖誕老人。當聖誕老人現身時,孩子們臉上流露出最純粹的驚喜與喜悅,而我們也努力「否認」聖誕老人與現場任何人有關,讓這份神秘感完整保留。那一刻,孩子們睜大雙眼、興奮歡呼的模樣,成為整場活動最動人的畫面之一。

初次見面時,許多孩子還有些害羞,小心翼翼地觀察著我們與周遭的一切。然而,在互動與遊戲之中,氣氛逐漸變得輕鬆溫暖,孩子們慢慢放下拘謹,笑容與笑聲很快充滿整個空間。

孩子們的願望清單在這一天一一被實現。當禮物被叫到名字送出時,孩子們帶著期待又緊張的表情走上前,拆開包裝紙的那一刻,驚喜與興奮全寫在臉上。有的孩子立刻坐在地上開始玩起新玩具,有的迫不及待試穿新衣服,也有人緊緊抱著剛得到的「新朋友」不肯放手。大家互相分享、展示彼此的禮物,開心地交流包裝紙下藏著的驚喜,整個空間洋溢著純粹的快樂與感謝。

這些禮物由蕭敬騰、Summer Lin、林熙蕾 與 喜鵲娛樂團隊 共同協助包裝,每一份禮物都附上親手寫下的可愛祝福卡片。孩子們在活動最後也親手寫下感謝卡回應這份心意,讓溫暖在彼此之間流動。

這次的送禮活動,也特別搭配了一場小型工作坊。我們希望孩子們知道,歲末不只是接受祝福的時刻,也是一個能夠透過創作與行動感受力量的時刻。因此,在收下禮物後,孩子們立即投入純素薑餅餅乾工作坊。

在烘焙與創作的過程中,孩子們學習合作、分享與耐心等待,讓這份歲末的相聚不僅停留在「收到禮物」的喜悅,更延伸為「一起創造回憶」的珍貴時光。

卑南的第一年圓滿完成,對我們而言,這不只是一次送禮行動,而是一段全新關係的開始。我們很幸運能與孩子們一起展開這段旅程,也期待未來持續陪伴他們成長。謝謝所有支持與參與的夥伴,讓這份善意得以傳遞,期待很快再次相見!

Our Santa Jia-Xin year end gifting has expanded to Beinan in Taitung! With gifts in tow, with the assistance of 臺灣葡萄園關懷協會 Taiwan Vineyard Arts Association we added to our year end gifting list so that more children can experience the wonders of the generosity and kindness of Jia-Xin. 

We had one of Beinan’s helpers dress as Santa and the expression on the children’s faces was one of pure delight as we strongly denied any association of Santa being with someone that worked there. Many of the kids, as we met them for the first time, were shy as we began but slowly began to warm up to us and light up the room with their smiles and laughter.

One by one their wishlist was fulfilled. Some took to playing with their toys immediately, trying on new clothes, others simply hugged their new “best friend” and all had a show and tell with each other on what was beneath the wrapping paper.

Gifting session was paired with a mini workshop as we want children to know that year end is not only about receiving, but also empower them with creation; this year it will take form of not just our gingerbread workshop that took place right after receiving gifts lovingly wrapped by Jam Hsiao, Summer, Kelly Lin, and the entire team at China Fun Entertainment. Kids laughed at the cute greeting cards written by the team and also wrote thank you cards back.

Year one at Beinan completed! We are so blessed to begin this journey with the children. Thank you all so much and see everyone soon!
