- Omani Flag Craft:<\/b> The children used ribbons in the colors of the Omani flag to create a kind of \u2018magic wand\u2019 and learned what each color of the flag represents.<\/span><\/li>\n
- Pottery Painting:<\/b> They painted locally made pots after learning about where clay comes from and how potters\u00a0 in Oman transform it into useful or decorative items.<\/span><\/li>\n
- Camel Fun:<\/b> The children got up close to a real camel, learned about its uses in Oman, created camel handprint art and had the opportunity to try camel milk, if they wished to do so.<\/span><\/li>\n
- Date Sweet Making:<\/b> On Wednesday, they engaged in some food preparation. Children used date paste to roll small balls and covered them in red, white or green shredded coconut (as in the Omani flag) to take home to share with their families. We also talked about the date palm and its uses.<\/span><\/li>\n
- Picture Frames:<\/b> Today (Thursday), they started decorating picture frames by painting them with glue and sprinkling with sand. The frames will be completed next week after our beach trip! Also today the children were very excited to be able to give and receive sweet treats to their friends for the occasion of Qaranqasho. All treats have been sent home with the children!<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
