Last week, we hosted Valentine's Day parties at our eikaiwas. I probably shouldn't even do a post because I forgot to take pictures. When we're hosting those parties, we are so busy that we don't think about photos until it's too late. But we finally have this party thing down. We had a good mixture of sit down activities with movement activities. We had them make Valentines for their family members, danced the electric slide to "Achy Breaky Heart," had them each take a card with a Valentine word or phrase on it and make up a sentence in English, played "Do you love your neighbor?" and then ate ourselves silly. In Tsuruoka, a lot of them played ping pong, too. I think everyone had a lot of fun. Here's the few pictures I remembered to take:

| We brought sugar cookies, brownies, jam sandwiches with hearts cut out, chocolates, and chips and salsa. Many of the students brought treats as well. It was a crazy good feast! I took this picture before half of the food was on the table. The table was covered with all kinds of delicious things. That chocolate torte up in the corner was to die for. One of our students owns a bakery and her husband made that torte special for us. |
Only one more party to go! We just have the Easter party left! Wahoo!!!! Happy Valentine's Day!
