I hear that Mother’s Day in Egypt is a pretty big deal. Here we celebrate in March, and the moms are invited to the classroom for muffins and to hang out with their child. I love having parents come into the class. It’s a great way to have the kids show their parents what they are learning, and for the parents to get a good idea of what we are doing on a day to day basis. We had donuts with the dads a couple of months ago and the kids loved it. There’s always a little bit of (often unnecessary) anxiety when preparing for something for the first time, especially when you’re not quite sure of everyone’s expectations, and you have a personality like mine that wants everyone to be happy. We decided to have the kids make a gift for their moms. We cut each mom’s first initial of her name from a piece of cardboard, and the students are going to wrap the letters in yarn to make a decorative keepsake. I think they’ll be cute!
