Rocks, Trees, and Dirty Knees (August 2-6) When we sit beneath the shade of a large tree it's hard to imagine that a tiny seed had the potential to grow into something so magnificent. This week we are exploring many of the wonderful ways we can use the different differ-ent trees of the world. Delicious fruit pies from the bakery, handmade bird-houses, bird-houses, and hand-pressed paper are only a few of the useful things we will make from trees. At Kids Village, we believe that planting small seeds of knowledge and confidence in children will help them accomplish whatever they believe they are capable of becoming. As children experiment with the wonderful things that enme from trees, they will be experiencing the fruits that can come from plant ing a seed of knowledge and helping it grow. Helping Hearts (August 9-13) Of all the incredible things in the world, people are the most amazing! In a society that sometimes forgeU the unique potential of each person, we at Kids Village feel it's our responsibility respon-sibility to share our special gifts and talents with those less fortunate than ourselves. For our final week of Summer in the Village each child will play a special part as we show gratitude grati-tude for our summer of learning and growing. Wo. will be busy creating loom hats and lap quilts for those in need, and writing letters of appreciation apprecia-tion to our loyal servicemen and women.
