Last Week’s Event, Fair Trade and the Environment.

Anonymous on July 24, 2012 - 1:18pm

Last week we had our third Fair Trade event in our Children’s Series, based around the Environment. We watched the original Lorax movie, read a story about how we can help the environment, and talked about how fair trade can help big companies be more environmentally friendly. We then made a delicious snack of “ants on a log” (celery with peanut butter and raisins) to represent a safe environment for animals. Check out this picture of the kids making their snacks at our center!
