Here I Am!

Just a little blurb about me, I'm currently a second year student at Ryerson Univeristy in the Early Childhood Education program. This blog was created specifically for my CLD 215 - Creative Arts I class, so watch out... things may be a little unique!

I discovered my passion for working with children in grade six when we had a buddy program at our school. All the "older" children were paired with a "younger" child for weekly activities. The one activity I remember the most, was teaching my buddy how to tie her shoelaces for the first time. After a few weeks of struggling and many attempts later, I felt extremely accomplished that I was able to help teach somebody this practical skill.

P.S - The inspiration for my blog title? Well, creativity is kind of like a spark. When you are able to catch a spark, it grows and keeps going if you feed it, until it become a fire! It's a such a joyous moment, just like the following "feel-good" song (where I borrowed the lyrics from):
