Teacher Peggy spends sports time (5-6 p.m.) with the girls. Here they are all trying to find Waldo.
And this young lady found Waldo on each of three different pages within 20 seconds. Amazing.
Teacher Peggy gathered rope from the seminarians and constructed jump ropes. With about 3 minutes of instruction it took off.
These girls practiced until they were told to get ready for dinner. This morning there were 40 boys and girls getting in line to play.
I walked from where the girls were playing and found this boy riding Bambi. Now he just has to be careful of Godzilla.
[That was a reference to the famous video Bambi Meets Godzilla - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BXCUBVS4kfQ]
Here we see Father playing Jianzi, a game where a badminton shuttlecock is heavily weighted and kicked from person to person, a kind of hacky-sack. For competition, it's played like badminton on the court...dang that would be really hard to do.
