China

Following our study of Ping, I thought we would do a week in China. I now have a desire to see the Yangtze river-and that is the only part of China, so far, that I'd like to see.

We learned about tai chi, kung fu, dragons, Chinese new year and their parades, the great wall, some animals that live in China, Chinese instruments (including this weirdly awesome dance) and our Chinese animals (Cedrik is a tiger [which is so insanely fitting for him], Freddie and me are rabbits, Eloise is a snake, Marie is a sheep, and Jordan the ox). We watched kung fu panda a couple of times, which resulted in all out kung fu tickle wars. The boys helped me make a stir fry, which also included trader joes plant chicken-so good. Best stir fry sauce this house has ever had.

It was a pretty productive week. I put their first lap books together and they put them in their binder. They are so proud.
