CROATIA – FEBRUARY ACTIVITIES

February was indeed various. We had all sorts of weather, and FINALLY snow!!! :)
 Real winter weather was exquisite. We had a lot of fun in the snow, too. This game is called „Footsteps in the snow“. The teacher goes first and makes the footsteps and the students have to step in those footsteps.
We made a snowman, but the snow was dry so we couldn't make a big one. Of course, all hands together made it easier!
We used pine cones to make snowman's nose and eyes, and twigs for his arms.
Finally, we had a photo session with our snowman.
And tried to make it snow by throwing the dry snow up.
Some of us found big heaps of snow and used them to make a snowman.
The sky was perfectly blue and clear.
We saw mistletoe in the trees and some crows.

We always have beautiful view on the sunset in the evening. And with the snow it is so magical.
And then, by 20th February, the snow melted…
It was really sunny, but still cold.
We played dodgeball again,

And saw a cat…
In February we usually celebrate the carnival under the masks. Masks help us to scare away the winter spirits, and invite the spring. Here is the short video clip of the fun we had in our school dance:
 All in all it was an interesting month!
