New Games = New Fun!!! Thurs, Aug 8

Today we tried something new with games and it worked GREAT!!!
After playing a bunch of our favorites:  dancing, Duck Duck Goose, Musical Chairs, Tiburones, Tug-of-War, we created Stations.  At each station was a different game run by a different PV student.  So, Kayla was in the 1st corner with Bags.  Bell was in the 2nd corner with ring toss. Ramya & Carter were in the 3rd corner with jump rope, Mr Ahlgren was in the last corner with Golf Toss.  Addie took the middle of the court with Four-Square. We divided the kids into 5 groups and then went to one of the stations.  They got to play the game at their Station for about 4 min, and then we rotated to the next station.  After 4 min, to the next....etc.... until the kids made it all the way around the court.  It was great!!!  The Lomas kids LOVED it because they got to play 5 different games in a matter of about 25 minutes.  Even the Lomas moms commented on how well it went!!!
Way to go, Gringos!!!

It was an early night back as there is no soccer on Thursdays. Another delicious meal - Lomo saltado!!  We have truly enjoyed all the food that Victor's sister has made for us - she is a food magician!!  There are many daily members of the Clean Plate Club!!!

Tomorrow is our last day up the Hill.  Wish us well... I think it's going to be a rough day.....
