A new project: making himmeli out of old magazines.

A himmeli is an old Finnish Christmas ornament.
Traditionally made out of rye straws, hanging them above the
dinner tables ensures a good rye crop in the new year!

Last week

We took at trip with Maria last week along Queen Street. First, we went to Beaver cafe for some delicious hot chocolate and chatted about the film we're going to make with the other groups. Then, we met the Dewson penguins at Twist Gallery, and tried to start some dialog between the groups. Also at the gallery, we looked through the archival-modern meld photos!

Having tea while working on our chapter book:
How To Rescue an Injured Animal 

Eventful week

We checked out the Maya exhibitions (no photography allowed) 
before having free time at the play area.

We were amazing at helping and teaching those
who were less comfortable on the ice. 

The ice mountains by Dufferin Grove's ice rink never gets old.

Movember Olympics turned into a marshmallow roasting fest!
