The first field visit was just to interact with the children and understand their space, their routine and how our activities could be a part of their daily lives. Since our activity had to be based on a particular context, which was of their surroundings, the aim of our field visit was to get familiar with the girls and be able to form a good relation with them. I interacted with the girls in the village and received first hand information about the kind of life they lead everyday. The mentors helped me to know about the issues being faced by the girls. The kind of approach we took when we first interacted with the girls were:
1. By engaging them in a game, which would help us break the ice and start a conversation with the girls.
2. We asked them to narrate their daily routine and tried to map it visually for them. This activity generated interest and a lot of the girls started drawing for fun.
