Vocational Training at Justin’s Home(Sathya niketan Special School) saw the children learning to make Dream Catchers, a showpiece much in demand, for its aesthetic appeal. Dream Catchers are a fascinating tradition and popular in Western countries, and are making their way to Indian homes too. Dr. Linu’s surname conducted a session for the students and guided the children in making dream catchers.
The activity of putting together a dream catcher imparts ability-based training to persons with slow learning and cerebral palsy. It helps them use their abilities, skills, and techniques. Through this activity, the children at Justin’s Home could
concentrate, observe, and learn coordination in putting the colorful dream catcher together. One main benefit is that it can be easily handled by the students without causing them harm while making it. The whole process also contributed to creating happy moments for the children as they saw the colorful creations emerge.
They used different materials like Rings, Threads, Feathers, Beads, Tapestry Needles, and Scissors. The students were quite interested in each and every step of the product making such as covering the ring with thread, weaving the middle pattern of the ring, and decorating it with beads and feathers as hanging. Dream Catchers are an ideal gift option that can be used in different ways like a car rearview mirror hanging, home decoration, key chain, or as a gift. The students had a good time making dream catchers and it was an enriching experience for them.
