Today in the library, Kindergarten took a trip to Mongolia! We were excited to host BCD friend, Sasha Sicurella, Director of the I AM Foundation, who recently returned from a trip to this distant country The I AM Foundation encourages works of self-expression for children of all ages, using a variety of media, including painting, drawing, photography and collage. Sasha generously shared pictures of her work with children who live in the Gobi Desert, as well as souvenirs from her trip. We explored self-portraits made by the children, miniature gers (yurts made out of wool that nomads live in), beautiful carved, wooden instruments, Mongolian money newspapers, artwork and toys. We also watched a slide show of Sasha’s work with the children in Mongolia. IMG_2605 IMG_2606 IMG_2607 IMG_2608 IMG_2609 IMG_2610 IMG_2611 IMG_2612 IMG_2613 IMG_2614 IMG_2615 IMG_2616
