Halloween Celebration Reading club
The October 25, 2013 at 2:00 pm, American corner made a Halloween celebration with children, held in the Library of the Central Bank. There were about 15 children. The children made Franken-stein’s head with plastic bo-ttles, recycling the materials , because we care about the en-vironment. They also did ghost with napkins! They en-joyed and shared materials. Then they began to play with puzzles and their crafts.
