After the show, the children surprised us all by bringing in large baskets of homemade gifts, which were distributed to the audience members (the audience seemed to consist of friends and perhaps even some family members of the children). After we’d each received some lovely Christmas decorations, homemade greeting cards and gingerbread cookies, it was the kids’ turn to get their gifts. The scene turned rather joyously chaotic, as names were called, gifts handed over heads of others and big smiles spread across faces. The kids had been instructed beforehand, apparently, to take their gifts back to their flats and open them there, presumably to avoid a colossal mess of wrapping paper in the hall! Because of that, we didn’t really get to see the kids actually opening their gifts, but we went around to two of the four flats (in the new building) to have a look and see where the kids and their caretakers live.
