At the three compounds within Port-au-Prince proper we now
have playgrounds! Colorful structures to play on. These were put in about 3
weeks before school ended so they are still pretty new. There are swings,
slides, monkey bars, merry-go-rounds, and balance beams. The kids here actually
had to be shown what to do with it. Things we take so easily for granted. They
started out just looking at it all but once they were shown what to do they
were all about it! The different
playgrounds opened on different days (I wasn’t actually able to be at any of
the first time uses). Over at Repatriate they had some of the mothers
watching…they also didn’t know what to do. When they got a chance on the swings
though they were excited! At Cite Soleil
there is also a fort that was built. It is in the midst of being painted bright
primary colors (I’ve been told). I think the kids are really going love this
addition to the school day (and other days).
