Dancing Crosby.
Making lacquered stones.
A rug making scavenger hunt. We went on a scavenger hunt to learn all about how rugs are made. And the kids even got to wear headlamps! It turns out making a rug by hand is incredibly difficult and time consuming. After the scavenger hunt it seemed like the $7000 rugs were actually quite a bargain. (Ten Thousand Villages only sells fair trade products so they were fairly priced, but it's still rather impressive how much work is actually involved in making one.) Here is information about how they are made if anyone is interested.
This is the tunnel under a pile of rugs where we found the lost sheep.
This is Rory.
This one is Gage.
And this is Piper emerging from the tunnel.
Designing their own rugs.
The prizes at the end of the scavenger hunt - mini rugs.
