Did anyone notice the doll sticking out of KaDee's pocket in one of the pictures?
I wonder if she was carrying around "flat Stanley" for one of the nieces or nephews? One of our grand daughters sent one to my Hubby when he was working in China. He took lots of pictures for her and her classroom at school. |

Flat Stanley has been an elementary school project for many years. The children usually draw and color their own character and send it off to someone to take various pictures . In our case since my husband was working in China for a year, our grand daughter sent him flat Stanley. Then at the end of a certain period, the children all share their pictures and experiences at school.
We have been at various locations in our travels, and I have noticed children or parents taking pictures with a flat Stanley. One time was at the Biltmore Mansion in NC. Sometimes it can be called something else, but flat Stanley is what we heard. It's a cute idea and fun experience for the children. |

Good catch with the 'flat Stanley' in the photo - how cool is that, to do something like that for a kid?

good explanation of flat Stanley keepsmiling I guess I just figured all the countries had that by now since it has been going on I guess it might still be in American. Maybe you could start it with your kids Ekua
I'm not surprised KaDee did something so sweet __________________

Thanks Keepsmiling, that's a nice thing to do!
Yeah KaDee does seem like a genuinely lovely person; I don't think i've read one bad thing about her ever. Same with Jason I think she'd be a lot of fun to go drinking with __________________

April 7th
Last day of school on Friday; it can't come quick enough!! Right now it's school summer camp, so no normal lessons but I have the same kids for 2 hours every day. I have 7 year olds who are adorable most of the time but such hard work!! And since we have no books to follow it's hard to thing of interesting topics to keep them interested.... __________________
