Today we took a little break to make drawings based on the Chinese characters we learnt last week. They need to try make a picture that include as much as possible below and make one or two stores.
石口叼，美人，牙爪，四五不，上下車
rock, mouth, pickwithmouth, beauty, person, tooth, claw, four, five, no, up, down, car
Let's go on the journey with the kids with their amazing imaginations:
First set (age 8 and 4)
1. ‘up above’ the sun is shining, ‘five’ penguin eggs hatched, the father went ‘down’ to the sea to fish, the ‘four’ fishes swam around his ‘claws’ to say ‘no’ we don’t want to be caught, so he came back 叼 a ‘beautiful’ flower in his ‘mouth’ （the yellow bits are ‘teeth’) 2. when the sun was out people came out to play but it rained.
3. Lastly, a lovely image made by pressing the paper on their palette!
Second set (age 3)
