Give Thanks...

The English Village where I work was open over Christmas, which unfortunately meant that our department had to work. The very kind Edutainers (read: educator + entertainer)* baked us some delicious Christmas cookies. Our department made them a card to say Thank you:

And to wish them a very Merry Christmas!

*If you are wondering what an Edutainer does - they perform awesome ESL musicals and game-shows for the kids that come here for the day. It's a full process from writing their own scripts, music and choreography to directing and acting. I helped with some set design a while ago for their show Imagine That.

Their department and our department work together so that during the entire Day Experience kids can visit different classes/workshops/game-shows and musicals and learn about the same theme and have vocabulary that overlaps. The current theme is Health and Happiness. 

Here is an extract from their Winter Show - Camp Health :

Birthday cards

Just a few quick pics of some of the Birthday cards that I've made for friends using coloured paper, origami patterned paper, black paper I designed in photoshop and alphabet stamps. 

* Happy Birthday! * 

Skinny Cards

I just uploaded some DIY birthday cards to my Etsy store. I made these for my mom when I went home because she loved them so much. I love you mom.
