Italy Day

Posted by: principledpacific | Comments Comments Off

We just had Italy Day and invited lots of homeschool kids and their families. The moms brought the spaghetti and some supplies for the activities and I organized the whole thing. I’m becoming quite the spray paint mural expert. My husband helped me think through the lines and perspective. Here’s our schedule:

1.    1:30 Arrival/Passport Stamping
2.    1:50 Story Time Presentation
3.    2:10 Flag Craft
4.    2:30 Sistine Chapel Painting Project
5.    3:00 Pasta Making Activity
6.    3:15 Taste of Italy Food Contest
7.    3:45 Puppet Demonstration and Construction
8.    4:30 Grape Stomping Experiment
9.    5:00 Dinner – Spaghetti & Meatballs
10.    5:30 Disney Movie & Dessert – Gellato
