Orgami Cranes

Last week, Tuki and I learned about paper cranes! In Japan, they say if you make one thousand paper cranes, you get one wish! So,we are going to make one thousand! So far, I have only made three. :) Tuki has made seventeen! I hope we can make a wish! If you want to learn how to make paper cranes, look down and you will see the steps!

Jr. Leaders

So Purple Pixie, Tuki, and I have started a new program at the YMCA. It is called Jr. Leaders. It is really fun because you discuss thing and sometimes go on field trips. The last one we went on was at the Family Fun Galaxy. There is a really fun game called Laser Tag. It is when you put on a vest and then you have a fake laser gun and you can shot other peoples vests. Well, I have to go!!
