Around the world - India and Mexico

We had another great week learning about India. The kids enjoyed reading the book  'Counting through India' - they learnt about the Taj Majal, Rangoli, Mehndi, elephants and all about how people dress in India.

The kids also enjoyed role-playing; building a train track through India and flying on a plane to India!

Since there will be no Blog next week, here is a snippet of what we have been doing this week. Our country for International Day is Mexico!

The kids are enjoying learning about the traditional clothes, food and music of Mexico. Here they are making themselves into poncho/hat wearing Mexicans. They thought they looked very funny and couldn't stop giggling when they saw their faces on the door!

We also made some Tacos - the kids learnt a lot about how to make Mexican food. They are really excited to try out some real food on Friday!

Finally, here they are doing some free playing. 

As a home activity, you can play this cooking game with your kids. There are many choices between fajitas, tacos and other Mexican food.

Making Fajitas

Enjoy! :)
