Melancholy Parting

This morning was my last time at the Hospital for Kids. It was hard to say good-bye to so many sweet souls. We had fun this week. Lots of games, laughs, and crafts. I hope they will remember Peter Parker (aka, SpiderMan) fondly. I will remember each of them very fondly. 

Today we did paper lanterns, thanks to Raya's creative inspiration. The kids seemed to really enjoy creating and customizing their lanterns. Afterwards, there were unique versions of War, Uno, and Jenga. The one game where the rules seem to be followed as intended is Chutes and Ladders. It is a universally classic game, where the rules are intuitive in any language.

It's so unfortunate to realize that these kids will be losing Asya and Sveta after next week, as well. The kids clearly adore both, and are always eager to show them what they've created. And, of course, to try to get help getting through to the not-so-fluent Peter Parker!
