Monday in the KidZone, had a Myths and Legends theme.
And with everyone there, we made a fantastic team!
We could weave with paper, like that Greek girl, Arachne,
And make pretty envelopes for the Tooth Fairy.
Lanterns and pennants, fit for a king,
And Russian Firebirds with colourful wings.
There were lots of things for us to do and make,
And some of even had delicious carrot cake!
