Last week HAWA hosted a Niam Ntxhais workshop, a total of five mothers came with their daughter(s). During this workshop, it was meant to bring the mothers and daughter(s) closer in having a stronger bond in their relationships. This workshop as well as the activity that was done was meant for the mothers and daughters to share and build memories that they can look back on. The activity that was done for this workshop was making a tie blanket. With this activity its core focus was for the mother and daughter(s) to work on their communication skills and teamwork. This activity was meant for both mother and daughter(s) to have a conversation and be able to engage with one another. During this activity, those who already finished their tie blanket went and helped other mothers and daughter(s) who did not finished. Throughout this activity, many of the other mothers noticed that it takes more than one mother to help with making the tie blanket. During this activity, we learned that it take a village to raise a child. If we all take part in a child growth, the child can flourish into something more through all the help from other mothers as well as other peers.
