Imagination Fair

Posted on January 20, 2009 at 4:52 pm in

My eight year old just entered her first imagination fair at her school. This is an event calling students to produce a project in one of several categories including space, structures, demonstrations, animals to name a few. My daughter entered building with a miniature model of the Duluth Lift Bridge made out of toothpicks and marshmallows. From the ideas inception through the building process and the transportation to the school, with the request for a ride home to prevent damage, it was a great pleasure to witness her use of various skills, determination, follow-through and pride in her finished work. This is a great stage in her life where the possibilities are truly endless and her imagination knows no bounds and her abilities are brought together to make something out of nothing. It is real magic…
