Valentine's Day at the Alila Ubud from Ngurah

A bus from Alila Ubud collected us and we arrived there at 1.30 pm.
First, they gave our children name tags, ribbons to wear, tissues, and perfumed hand towels. Then we received a welcome drink of fresh juice to ease our thirst.

We began with a game. All our children made a big circle. While a ball was passed around to other friends, they sang a song. When the song finished, the child who had the ball stood in the centre of the circle.
The next game is team co-operation. They must carry a balloon over a course; the fastest team is the winner.
Then lunch time. They sat at long tables in a circle. Each child had a box lunch (burger, fried potatoes, and hamburger with a red sauce). They also had a plate of pizza to share with others at each table.
After that, we went back to the next game. The magic man was ready with his games (card, money, etc). He also taught some games to our children. Next, the balloons team made many shapes with balloons. All of our children had their requests made with balloons.
They got ice cream.
We also had face painting, or impermanent tattoo for the boys and nail paint for the girls.
The also played some games.
After that, we celebrated the winners from each of the game. Winners are Nova, Agus Murdika Yasa, Arya, Yogi, Yustikasari, Sumadi and Mega.
We closed this event by printing each of our orphan’s hand in paint on a large banner (Taman Permata Hati with Alila Ubud). Then we made photos together.
All of us enjoyed this event. We hope all sponsors can enjoy with us our story of Valentine’s Day.
