Asian Cultures Week

 

We enjoyed making carp kites. The carp is a symbol of courage.
 

We painted uchiwas 
(round fans that do not fold).

 

 

"Gyotaku" - Ancient Japanese fishing printing

 

Origami means to fold paper.  
We folded frogs and had a contest to see which 
one jumped the longest.

 

Ready, set....jump!

 

Sumie is Japanese brush painting.  We painted bamboo branches and apple blossoms on scrolls.
   

Leaving our shoes outside we entered for our tea ceremony.

 

 
We discussed friendship & nature.
