~ the tribesmen check each other out--will they be allies or enemies?
~ ah, peace is decided upon, even though these tribesmen hail from different villages (as anyone can clearly see from the different insignias on their headdresses)Josiah was a little confused about where the Incas lived and who they might have fought against, since he kept insisting that he was fighting the Egyptians. "Um, no, sweetheart, I don't think the Incas and Egyptians ever fought. They lived pretty far away from each other." But nothing would dissuade him from his quest to find Egyptians!
Just another day in our homeschool...

Jackie should be appalled that "Egyptians" should be the default "enemy"! I think this comes from Josiah's enthusiasm over the story of Moses.
Those kids are too cute! You are such the creative teacher...did you come up with the headdress pictures?
Christin, the idea for this craft and the pictures that Josiah colored to make them came from a freebie included in a Chick-fil-A kids' meal. This is just one of the reasons I love that restaurant; they actually include EDUCATIONAL but fun gifts with their kids' meals...v. cheesy plastic toys that you get at other fast-food restaurants. Anyway...
It's a Jump Start World CD for the computer, and this particular one is Jump Start Explorers (we also have the Artists one). Josiah LOVES them, and he's learned a lot from it, too. So I can't take any credit for having this brilliant idea. :)
