Session 2, Day 3

Happy Wednesday!  Hard to believe this journey is coming to an end, but Urban Rangers know why they say, "Time flies when you're having fun!"

In the courtyard...

so much happening here!  reading, chatting, and kumihimo!

t-shirt painting cont'd

Everyone is so engaged in whatever project they choose--everyday should be like this in school!

completed kumihimo!


This braiding method is so engaging across gender and age differences.  There is a tricky pattern that is repeated, which is frustrating at first, but once you get it, you get it!  And there's instant gratification in creating something so unique, in a short amount of time!

Another amazing day....looking forward to sharing our work and our beloved courtyard with families tomorrow!  
Hope to see you then!
