Creating Music in the Castle

This book has been inspiring some of us to look at little closer at that hollowed out place at the base of a tree, or a little dug out space in the sand box. We also prepared the sensory table for some fairy house construction of our own.

Weaving Bracelets

TRAMA Textiles

Stephens College will host Oralia Chopin and Amparo de Rubio of TRAMA Textiles of Guatemala Monday, March 22 through Friday, March, 26.

TRAMA Textiles is a 100% worker-owned women’s weaving association made up of 400 back strap loom weavers in the western highlands of Guatemala. The association offers quality products that ensure fair wages to the artisans.

Today the women visited the school where they learned about the women's culture and their daily lives. Cat Withrow translated for Oralia and Amparo while answering the students questions. Most of the children left with a beautiful bracelet and the women said they would continue to visit the school until every child had one.
