Last week we spent the week learning about Christopher Columbus and his trip to the America's. Hannah was very interested but I was thinking 'Why do we celebrate Columbus Day when he didn't even set foot in the United States?' Regardless, we had fun last week and ended our lesson by making three boats and "sailing" them across the "Atlantic" (our bathtub.)
Poor kids...my boat making skills are dismal indeed but they had fun nonetheless.
It looks like it says 'Sista' but it says Pinta.
The three ships set sail.
Even Amos joins in the fun.
Thankfully the real Nina, the Pinta and the Santa Maria didn't sink like our poor little ships did. Amos decided to throw some "obstacles" into the mix.
