Spring fair at the international school

We had a fun day at the international school last week. They had a spring fair event to raise money for charity. Families were asked to donate items that could be resold at the fair. We donated a bunch of books and baby clothes. We also bought a bunch of books and toys for the kids. We set out thinking that we weren't going to spend much money. When stuff costs 1 euro, how much can you spend, right? Well we just kept loading up our bag and before we knew it, we had spent 20 euros. When it just costs 1 euro, you don't even think about whether or not you really need it you just get it. The kids have enjoyed the books and games that we bought, so it was all worth it.

Once we were done shopping, we went to the cafeteria where a few nationalities set up food stands, show casing the food from their country.

We filled up on falafel wraps and cup cakes then headed out to the play ground to burn off some calories.

We had a really fun day. I'm going to miss Amsterdam's international school. We've made lots of good friends there. It's been a great experience for us all. Dylan has flourished in the 9 months that he's spent at the school. He's learned how to count to 20 and knows most of his shapes. He's also become quite good at entertaining us with the songs that he has learned from Judy, his music teacher. We are looking forward to the international school in Copenhagen next year.
