This past friday, the girl's school had international day. It was a day where each child had a passport and went around to different countries to learn about that particular place. The parents of their child's home country made booths that talked about their country. We represented the USA and did the NASA theme. We got costumes made that looked just like what they wear at NASA. It only cost us about $18 dollars to make. We showed a video with Neil Armstrong saying, "This is one small step for man and one giant leap for mankind". One of the parents ordered dry ice cream from NASA and each kid got to taste the kind of food they eat in outerspace. The kids first began the morning with seeing a chinese face changing dance. It is really neat. The chinese put colorful costumes on and have their face painted and as they dance their face changes. I have posted some pictures in our gallery about the day. At the end of traveling the world, all the kids and parents finished the day off with lunch from around the world. Every parent brought a dish that represented their country and we shared it. We had food from India, Korea, Japan, Hong Kong, China, Finland, Sweden, Holland, Austrailia, Italy, Singapore, Thailand, America,Spain, and many other places. I took a picture of all the countries represented. It was a busy day, but I think the kids enjoyed themselves. The girls also had to make flags to wear to school one day. Attached is a picture of their flag. I thought they turned out pretty good!!
