Overview
3HowTo provide a recreational activity to residents/children, with fun and a chance to learn handicrafts. The first trial will take two to three hours. The facility will give 3HowTo their requirements and suggestions to achieve the goal together.
Goal
- Provide residents/children with a safe and comprehensive activity at the facility’s entertainment room.
- Activate the resident’s and children’s creativity and prompt activity.
Specifications
- 3HowTo will provide materials that the special activity needs, such as stickers, tassels, and acrylic boards. For safety reasons, the facility can ask for the range of materials, but not the suppliers or the intellectual property.
- If the activity requires scissors, a knife, watercolours, acrylic paint, paper or paint brushes, and so on will not be included.
- 3HowTo will provide some tweezers and wood sticks to help residents/children process handicrafts. Residents/children will need to share these tools to use them, but it does not guarantee that each person will have individual tools.
- During the section on activity skills, 3HowTo will explain slowly and repeat the steps till each resident/child fully understands how to do then move on to the next step.
Milestones
- First section: a resident/child will get her/his material through an activity. For example, a resident will play a fishing game with a rod to catch a paper fish. Once she/he catches a fish, she can find a sticker to continue the second section.
- Second section: a resident/child will learn how to handicraft an item, such as making a Christmas décor pendant, a bookmark, a simple gift box and so on.

The facility would like to give it a try. When? How many residents/children?
