It was brought to my attention at a MOPS meeting the other day that my family really doesn't know much about any other countries, including those of our own heritage! So I'm proposing a weekly, or even bi-weekly, study of the world!We're going to pick a location, either by spinning a globe, playing pin the flag on the country, or something else to keep the boys entertained. Then we'll take the next week or two learning about the culture, food, climate, what animals live there, how the kids dress, anything and everything to do with that country.
Seeing as the boys are still fairly young, we'll probably utilize our more convenient resources like the local library, Internet, educational TV programs, etc. And maybe with a little luck, we'll even make some new friends through an organization.
There is just so much more than our simple lives here in Bend and I want our family to learn about our World and the different cultures so they might be called to a mission trip someday. And maybe meet those friends they made while learning about the world.
