Visiting Our Chalet for Christmas!


Our second trip through the World Centres had us wind up in Switzerland at Our Chalet for Christmas! We learned about Switzerland and some of the amazing things you can do when you visit there. We shared some artifacts from Our Chalet and then Heather shared her video slideshow from when she volunteered there in 2012. We learned the Our Chalet song and then got right into some crafts!


The craft we picked for this meeting is calleScherenschnitte which means "scissor cuts" in German. It is an intricate and beautiful art form that the girls enjoyed doing and they had great results. 



Some final pieces of art completed! I think they did a fantastic job!



Some of the marshmallows, apples, bananas, and pretzels before they were dipped in chocolate and eaten right up. Yum! 


Nothing like some chocolate fondue to celebrate Swiss culture! 


2 down, 2 to go!
