International Fair

The last day of school before the December holidays was International Day. The parents from each country in the school got together and set up a table to educate the kids about their country. Items shown included attire, maps, sports, culture, and food. They got to sample food at each station. They also had cute passports that were stamped at each country.

The booths were set up all over the school grouped by region. In one area was all the countries from North and South America, in another hallway was Europe, another area was Asia, etc, etc

It was so interesting to see how much the parents all got into showing off their countries. It was also a little sad that some countries who have lots of kids at the school weren't represented at all (Lebanon, Australia, New Zealand, France to name a few).

As you can imagine, when I asked the kids which country had the best food, they all said USA! At the USA table we had mini cupcakes, brownies, chocolate chip cookies, hotdogs, macaroni and cheese, etc.

Here are some pics of a few of the tables.
