Pumpkins and Turkeys: Happy Halloween and Thanksgiving!!!


Happy Halloween and Thanksgiving!

November 22, 2018

This past month we celebrated a couple of traditional American holidays with our English Clubs!

Halloween

First, in the end of October we had several Halloween parties for the teenagers and young children. We invited them to show up in costumes and celebrate with us!

For the children’s club on Saturdays we played many games such as Bobbing for Apples, Egg and Spoon Race, the Mummy game and of course, Trick or Treat! They children ran in the library halls and rooms and the librarians gave them candy! It was an amazing and fun event and the children were very energetic and happy!

For the teenagers, we also played games, and had fun making up scary stories in English. Many of the students dressed up in scary costumes, and we had a costume contest to see which student had the best looking costume! We ate delicious pizza and we were laughing so much because everyone was making funny jokes!



Thanksgiving

We also celebrated an important American Holiday in the American Corner. Thanksgiving is celebrated by many families in the United States. It is a time when we invite friends and family to sit with us to eat a nice feast (with the Thanksgiving Turkey, of course), and be thankful for the things we have in our lives.

For the teenagers, we cooked the traditional Thanksgiving foods and shared a meal with them. We played a trivia game and also drew hand turkeys and shared with each other what we are thankful for in our lives.


For the children, we learned important words such as parents, love, life, pet animals, and other things that they believe are the most important things in their lives, and we drew hand turkeys together!


We are so happy to share our culture with the teenagers and children of Moldova, and we too have learned so much from their culture! We may be different people and have different languages, but the things that are most important in life: family, friends, love, life, pet dogs and cats – these things are important for every person wherever in the world, and these things that we are most thankful for, connects us all together J
