Geography/History Project

Posted on February 21st, 2007 in Events

I am a HSing mom in Pennsylvania, PA. I have 3 children and we are working on a project.

We are sending our stuffed monkey, Mr Row (c) around the world. Families are signing up to host him for 3 weeks at a time. While they have Mr Row(c), I ask that they take pictures with him on any field trips they may go on. I also ask that they send historical and geographical facts about their area.

If anyone in your group would be willing to volunteer to host Mr Row(c), please have them contact me. Thank you very much in advance.
