Family Time Toolkit: Drama Games & Storytelling Kids Can Teach Their Parents

Designing a Community Workshop for Sept 5th*

Is your family stuck in a rut of what you talk about around the dinner table, or when you're together on evenings and weekends? Take the "Creasman Challenge" and learn a few drama tricks to spice up your family life. This session is for kids of all ages to let their hair down and have a little creative & dramatic fun. The catch? You take what you've learned back home and try it out with their parents and grandparents! If you report back to me within the next 2 weeks, I'll post on the web it to inspire others. A prize will be awarded on September 19th, to the student who has the best family photos/most creative report of the experiment.

BIO: K!Mberly Creasman spent the first half of her life in Los Angeles where she obtained her BA in Communications/Drama from Biola University and married James at very young age (in 1984-25 years ago!) It was eight and twelve years later that Tyler (the Singlish Speaking White Boy) and Cameron (13) added "Mother" to her CV. In 1997 the Creasmans moved to China for 2 years of language & culture study that help endear her to all her neighbors in Singapore, where she studied Mother tongue with her boys who attended local schools for their first 6 years here. She is currently working on a guide book: Get Out of the Malls and Movies: A Singapore Guide to Family Fun with Teenagers (working title).

A permanent resident for many years now, she gets really re-charged when teaching and mentoring creative people in theatre and personal development. Since her arrival in Singapore she's had some part in dozens of performances for itheatre, Focus on the Family, Tapestry Playback Theatre, yelowbox studios, raintree productions, All Good Gifts and various church groups. In recent years she has lead the drama ECAs at ICS (http://ourtheatrecompany.blogspot.com) and is currently an adjunct lecturer in theatre studies for TCA College.
