Our Summer Travels

We are becoming world travelers this summer as we follow along our weekly destination themes. We set off for our adventure in June. Our first stop was Mexico. While exploring Mexico we made tacos. Each of the children chose the ingredients for their own tacos. Their choices were meat, cheese, lettuce and tomato. Gabbi stuffed her taco full of the colorful ingredients.

Next, we celebrated the fourth of July in the United States, in Washington, D.C. The children were able to use red, white, and blue flannel pieces to construct American flags. They also used toothbrushes, glitter, and pipe cleaners to paint their own fireworks.

Last week, we stopped in France and became artists. We painted at an easel and used a painter’s palette, pretending we were famous French artists.

This week our trip has taken us to India. We are experiencing the smells of some of the spices of India. We will be creating a representation of Curry Rice.

We are looking forward to going south across the ocean to Australia. We will enjoy exploring and talking about some of the interesting animals that can be found there.

After that, north to Germany and then…

We have already had so many different experiences. Wouldn’t you like to join us in our travels? We are having so much fun!
