Sand Dollars, Sock Pets, Spanish, Some Cool Marble Mazes

I hope your child received a sand dollar and a sand dollar poem about Easter. What a marvelous story of symbolism and FAITH. April is our month to celebrate the fruit of FAITHFULNESS. Our theme verse is John 3:16. We are working on memorizing the verse and applying it to our hearts!

The children created adorable sock pets using rice, ankle socks, movable eyes, pompoms, felt and more. Also, the boys were able to create marble mazes using wood, markers and nails. The boys were carefully coloring and pounding in nails. The entire project will be completed next week. Thanks to the Kidzone (the FRC Sioux Center after school club) for the sock pet idea and to Norm Plender, and Galen Kleinwolterink for preparing the wood for the boys, and to Jim Aberson, JR Siebersma and Stan Van Otterloo for the hammers and patience!!

Thanks again to Claudia for teaching Spanish to 6 enthusiastic young ladies! We are excited to hear your songs in Spanish!!
