Creating magic play with refugees

UNITE – In Utrecht around christmas a party was organised to make citizens of Utrecht connect with refugees from Syria, while waiting for their next situation. What other then play can be done? So I was asked to create a play station. I brought as many games and toys along as I could find, create my “tent” to have the magic happen inside…. It was a great day, nothing as I expected at for hand, but so much connection was made and lessons about the magic of the state of play were learned, young and old, to play together, conflicts about ownership and entitlement were discussed and solved in play, see the pictures to get an idea:
