Asia Week

.

---

We started our Asia week by creating some stunning oriental cherry blossom pictures and then turning them into lanterns.  We looked carefully at some peacock feathers and then painted the tail on a beautiful Indian peacock painting, and finished our arty day by colouring some Asian 'dress up' dolls from Japan, China, Burma and Mongolia

We had lots of fun dressing up in our Chinese costumes and dancing to different Asian music, we also enjoyed a tea party just like Mulan.

We had an Indian curry night, where we tried chicken korma, chicken tikka masala, samosas, rice, naan breads and popadoms - followed by some birthday cupcakes.

The little one's favourite craft of the week was making some 'Mulan inspired' lotus flower hair clips. We think they look beautiful.

We made fans and looked at some Asian animals. We also tried really hard to make some origami animals. They were very tricky.

We also enjoyed a fabulous Chinese buffet with sweet and sour sauce, battered chicken, stir fried veg, egg fried rice, noodles, prawn crackers and pea crackers.

To finish the week off we decorated some sweet mini panda muffins.
