Room 8 Goes to China!

Like I have mentioned before, over the past couple of weeks the library was in the process of being transformed into China! This morning, it was Room 8's turn to take a flight over for a tour and some fun. I took a TON of pictures. (I won't post all of them, I promise. Maybe.)

Boarding the aircraft and preparing for our flight to China!
We have liftoff!
Landing safely in China and preparing to exit the plane


Entering China! (Wish I could have gotten in there first to take a picture of their reactions.)

Taking it all in

All the bookshelves were covered with paper and canvas. The library was unrecognizable!

The Tea Room

Tea anyone?

The kiddos getting a "tour of China" to see how all the centers were set up
Checking out all the artwork

The Tea Room

The Great Wall of China painted on a bookshelf!

The three-dimensional Great Wall of China!

Kiddos making paper envelopes for their gold coins

Practicing chopsticks by picking up cotton balls

Tea for three!

Having fun in the Tea Room

Checking out the pagoda (There was a little water fountain inside!)

Crafting some pandas
Yun-Qi, the Donkey (an Asa Adams Passport Project tradition - he has a new name for each year depending on the country)

"It's a Samurai panda."


Tea for two with the "Emperor of China"

Learning about our Chinese Zodiacs

Making Chinese lanterns! "To light our way back home since we were working late in the tea room."
