Thursday morning art

This morning I went down town to buy some tissue paper for an art project with the kids. This project is something that we do at the preschool (where I work if you didn't know). So I got the paper with relative ease, I walked to the shop where they sell paper, and all sorts of other office and school supplies, which was about a mile and a half. Just like anywhere I go here in Nepal people look at me like I just stepped out of a space ship, they just look and look and look some more. Its pretty interesting to be looked at like that, I should get my space ship up and running as soon as possible.

So I cut the tissue paper into squares and mixed some glue with water and gave the kids some paint brushes and let them have at it. Being that I usually do this art project with four year olds I wasn't really ready for what they where going to do.

Many of the kids made flowers and one of them made a house, so it was really amazing, their creativity is wonderful. I also got plenty of great pictures of this project. I have taken many great pics of the kids so far.

So tomorrow I am going to begin on a kite making project with the kids. We already got some made to order bamboo sticks for the frames, now all we need is wrapping paper and then we will let the kids have at it. They are pretty experienced at making kites, I think that flying kites is pretty big down here and possibly all over Nepal.
