Children can be highly imaginative and creative if given the freedom to create. During a previous outing to Rebak Island Resort, a group of orphans from Nur Kasih Orphanage in Ulu Melaka, Langkawi were thrilled when the resort management gave them the opportunity to try their hand at batik painting. The resort's artist Zaki, was kind enough to prepare framed outlines for the children and gave them a brief tutorial before they were schedule to begin....and you'd be surprised at the outcome...from the colourless framed designs came some very colourful characters from the minds of these children.....even I was thrilled by their enthusiasm and couldn't help trying my hand at batik painting...and mind you, it was so therapeutic and relaxing...I could do it for hours, especially as we were sited on the beach front, that added the spice and inspiration to the paintings.

Of course there were other children who were brought there by the Charity Club Langkawi by Lyn Jarvis and Sheila Allum. I remember how Lyn painted a beautiful Christmas tree with tinsels in bright colours!!!
