my husband and i went to italy in september
where we managed to catch a fun filled day
at the TOCATI street game festival in verona!
this is such a fun family festival...
the whole city comes alive with games
and music and dance from a particular country...
(you may remember a few years ago
i did a glob about the TOCATI
featuring games from switzerland
this year the festival focused on HUNGARY!
here are some of the exciting games
and performances and
demonstrations we experienced!
TOCATI means "it's your turn"!
here's the post i did about the tocati a few years ago...
and to go to the official tocati website,
if your family plans to be in italy in september,
you should really try to work this event in to your plans...
it's so much fun!

here's a fun and easy project
we did on the WHAT'S UP table over the summer...
we stamped beautiful flowers on cardboard
just using the bottom of a water bottle dipped in paint!
each paint color got its own bowl and water bottle...
even the littlest kids were very careful not to mix them up!
then the kids stamped the designs on their cardboard
and added some stems or accents with marker.
here are some of the beautiful results!
so many creative kids!
