More Activities

They girls were amazed that they could make their own baskets. They really got into it and the ladies were so patient while helping them. I ended up making Jake's and was nearly cussing by the time it was all over.
Go Mary!
The candle making was fun, well unless you got hot wax dripped on your little hand or toe. It was a little confusing for the kids that the candle did not get bigger the longer it was left in the hot wax. Several times the whole thing melted right back off into the melting pot. Nevertheless, they were very proud of their skinny little candles.
I was amazed at the preparation that went into this festival. These men had cut out, sanded, and painted little cars for the kids to help pound the wheels onto. They must have made hundreds of them. My kids were in hog heaven with all the free stuff they came home with!
