April Doin's

Last or Lasting Events I started the month with a new “Around the World” theme since I would soon be leaving Guyana.   I distributed Passports that Epcot generously provided for each child.   The passports have a spot for a stamp for about eight key countries.   When children write a short paragraph about the featured country they receive a stamp.   Smaller children just need to draw a picture to get the stamp.   I explained how a passport is used in an assembly and a few children are really working to get it filled.   My challenge was finding enough different rubber stamps.   I had a set but was short three…..corks trim up nicely for the job, in case anyone ever finds themselves in a similar situation!  I have amassed quite a collection of raw materials to make projects and a parent gave me the idea of conducting a workshop where children could come and make things.   So, I set up my materials and had the workshop mid-April.   All ages participated in making TP or paper bag
