Pre-K1 and Kinder friends are embarking on a journey through three European countries! ٩( ”ω” )و✨✨✨

The first destination is Italy. Buongiorno! 🇮🇹✨

The children dove straight into learning about traditional Italian dishes—pasta 🍝 and pizza 🍕!
Did you know that Italy boasts over 350 types of pasta? 😲 Each type is chosen based on the sauce or ingredients it’s paired with. The word pasta itself refers to dough made from flour and water. As for spaghetti, its name comes from the Italian word spago, meaning “”string,”” combined with the diminutive suffix -etto, which means “”small.”” So, spaghetti translates to “”little strings.”
On the other hand, penne, often used in baked dishes like gratins, derives its name from the Italian word penna (plural penne), meaning “”feather”” or “”pen.”” Its angled ends resemble the tip of a quill pen—fascinating, isn’t it? ✏️✨”
Moving to pizza, its name evolved through influences from ancient Greek and Latin languages. Historically, people used flatbread as a plate for their meals. Over time, as tomatoes 🍅 (initially ornamental plants in Italy) became a staple ingredient, they were used as sauce and toppings, leading to the creation of the modern pizza we all know and love today!
The kids are having fun soaking up these delicious details! 😋🍕🍝

Ah, I see… 🤔 (taking notes). Well then, let’s jump right in and create Italian flag-themed necklaces using penne! 🇮🇹✨✨✨The children will dye the pasta in the colors of the Italian flag—green, white, and red—and string them together to make vibrant necklaces.

Next up is France。Bonjour!

“Next on our journey, we visit the iconic Eiffel Tower (Tour Eiffel), a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Built for the 1889 World’s Fair held in Paris, this grand structure commemorated the 100th anniversary of the French Revolution, making it a symbol of both innovation and history. The project was led by renowned French engineer Gustave Eiffel, who took on the challenge of creating this remarkable monument.

Standing 324 meters tall, the Eiffel Tower was completed in just 2 years and 2 months by an incredible team of 300 workers—a testament to their skill and efficiency! 🇫🇷✨

What an inspiring example of ingenuity and determination!”

“Ah, I see! φ(..) Taking notes… 🖊️.

Without missing a beat, 🌹RRIS🌹’s young engineers have eagerly begun constructing their very own Tour Eiffel! 💪( ｀ー´)ノ✨”

The final stop is Spain. ¡Hola!
In the 15th century, the Gitanos (Gypsies) who settled in the Andalusian region incorporated local songs and dances to lay the foundation of Flamenco. It is said that during times of hardship, they sang and danced together within their families and communities to comfort and encourage one another while overcoming challenges.
🌹RRIS🌹 Method in action—after deepening their understanding, it’s time to try Flamenco! 💃( ｀ー´)ノ✨”

Look at this posture! Perfectly on point, don’t you think? (*”▽”)🎉🎉🎉

“With food, world heritage sites, songs, and dances, our journey through Europe, rich in art and culture, has come to an end.
Where will we go next?
Keep an eye on our Pre-K1 & Kinder friends—exciting adventures await! (｀・ω・´)ゞ”
