2009 World Expo

Today was the World Expo hosted by our homeschool group. We had about 25 families hosting tables, each showcasing a different country. What a wonderful afternoon! The kids even got 'Passports' to take around to the different tables and get stamped. Ya know my favorite part? See that picture above? The one with my boy showing everyone the project that he worked so hard on??? I almost cried. Honestly. Now I know I can be a bit of a sap, but it is so nice to see the kids being so proud of what they have put together. Some of the tables were incredibly detailed, well put together, high tech...you get the idea. Others were very simple, a little less than neat, done by 6 year olds instead of 16 year olds. But each and every child there could tell you a whole lot about the country that they studied, and they all had huge smiles on their faces. That is what it is all about, isn't it? And, to top it all off, even though you can't really see it here our table cloth (see our our post from Monday) worked out. Yeah!!
