Today the charmlings made bracelets, necklaces, and charm puffs, as well as and watched the movie "Up."
Our chitchat today was about Love, "Love beings by taking care of the closets ones, the ones at home," -- Mother Theresa.
Aunti Vi asked if any of the charmlings have ever been rude or unpleasant to their parents/family, and several girls and big sisters raised their hands. Aunti Vi introduced two new vocabulary words: concentric circles (a bulls-eyes) and aphorism (a quote or saying that teaches you things in a nut shell). Within the bulls-eye, Aunti Vi asked, "who are the closest ones at home?"
1st & most important circle - family (mom, dad, brother, sister, etc.)
2nd circle - neighborhood (friends, school, etc)
3rd circle - city/state (getting involved)
4th circle - country
5th circle - world
** start from the family and radiate out; inside out not outside in.
The girls had a lot to contribute!
See you all next week!
