Mummytime and bake sales

So in midgets ongoing Egyptian unit, we made a mummy. We made the coffin, and she even made the fruits and all kinds of accesories. She had so much fun, and actually so did I. It's cute to see her spouting facts. Did you know that they pulled their brains out their noses, before putting them in a jar, when preparing them? EEWWWW....,
It's really interesting actually. :)
And for the bake sale, wow. The school made over 16,000 dirhams, that's around 4000 dollars! We even had the ambassador from New Zealand come by. He was very nice, and very grateful. The heat melted some cupcakes, but the kids loved all the cakes, and it was fun chatting with the other moms, or mummies :)
Now we are on to Japan fundraising.
Midget painting her sarcophagus.

Note the jars with the body parts out of play doh :)

She is so proud of herself!

Ambassador of New Zealand :

Ok, so i did make some biscuit things that were new zealandish, but cupcakes, you can't go wrong. Throw a New Zealand flag, and it's New Zealandish!

All Black Day

Since the kids go to an "international" school, it seems with all these horrible disasters going on around the world that they seem to know someone affected by each. It's a good thing, in the way it is making them much more aware to the things going on far away, but it is bad in the same aspect. When Pakistan had all the flooding, they had Green Day. The kids paid to have a free dress day, but still wore green. They had the option of donating more, and midget gave all her piggy savings. They have another day on Monday, all black day for New Zealand. There are alot more people at school, including staff, who are from New Zealand. They are also having a bake sale, i have volunteered t bake, and man a stall. They have some interesting recipes, don't seem t like the typical chocolate iced cupcakes? Scones, and smething like peanut brittle called hokey pokey? It's for a good cause, and midget and monkey are all excited to help bake, and taste test, tomorrow. Cross your fingers these things turn out edible, and i don't poison anyone!
