Africa

Jambo! (that's hello in Swahili)

Today we continued our tour of Africa.  Miya's mom, Lisa came in and shared some wonderful stories about her trips to Africa and also shared some interesting souvenirs from her travels there.  She brought in wooden statues of African animals.

This is an African chief wisdom stool.


We took turns sitting on the stool. 




The wisdom stool must have worked because wrote amazing facts about giraffes!



What facts do you know about giraffes?

  2. Dear Mrs. Levy,

    Is it true that if the Giraffes eat a lot of berries, they get drunk! Which means that they will not be able to move around that well?!
