| The girls and I have been working on our World Showcase passports. I bought spiral-bound notebooks, about 8 inches by 6 inches. They were a little bigger than I'd wanted, but they've worked out really well. We've done five of the eleven countries so far. I found flags online and printed them out for each country. I also found info from a couple of different sources, which told about the country's language, religion, money, location, etc. Then I found a bunch of scrapbooking embellishments for every country but Norway (go figure!) and gave them to the girls so they could do what they wanted with them. We left one page blank for the CMs in each pavilion to stamp and sign. It's interesting that the girls had their own approach to the project: DD6 kind of wanted to get it done as quickly as possible, so she could go outside to play! DD8 took her time, using colored pencils instead of crayons so she could color in the details. Hope you enjoy them!

| Thanks, everyone! The girls are working on them now, so this afternoon I'll post more. My older DD said she wants to finish her book today. (I think she just wants to avoid her "regular" schoolwork! )
