Since it is the autum season here in Latvia, we used the great chance to make our own crowns of goldden leaves. First, we cut out strip of paper long enough to go around our head. Then we ran outside to collect the leaves. When we cam ein, we glued the leaves on our strip of paper. Do we look important enough in our goldden crowns? :)
Learning is as natual as sleeping, eating, drinking or breathing. As long as we live, we learn. Education is not confined to the walls of a school building. No single person, institution or government can define, what we should know, in order to be happy and have a successful life. Take a journey with us through our blog and see the world through our eyes!
