This week we visited the Philippines, China, India, Russia and wrapped up our holiday world travels at the North Pole.  We learned about the Parole that is used to decorate during the Christmas season in the Philippines, Chinese lanterns, and Russian Matryoshka dolls.

In India we learned about Diwali, the Festival of Light, and drew fireworks to represent it.

We ended up at the North Pole as our last stop and it was -36 there! Of course, after all our travels we were very tired so we had a bit of a break and watched The Grinch this afternoon.

Wishing all our families a wonderful Winter Break! Looking forward to seeing everyone in the New Year!
