Here We Go Travelers!

Summer is hot.  And then some.  And I imagined it to be very tranquilo, considering there aren't any classes to be teaching in the school and the average day is too hot to move between 8 am and 8 pm.  But I've actually been pretty busy preparing for GLOW, thanks to all who donated it's super close! And also two of my g-mates, Bonna and Ambyr, came to my community for three days to do a camp for the younger kids in my site.  

It was around the world cultures themed, with every day "traveling" to 4 different countries, 12 in total.  With every country we gave a little presentation talking about where it is located, what the capital is, what language they speak, the money they use, fun tourist attractions, etc.  Then we played a little game or did an art project related to the country.  After every country, we gave them each a stamp in their recycled paper passports I made them that they could take home with them.  The kids loved it!  We had a lot of fun and I had between 15-25 kids each day which was a great turnout.  

Hopefully the success will continue!
