Where in the world is Flat Stanley?! Everywhere!!!


Flat Stanley was busy this week!  He went to Hawaii; San Francisco and Disneyland in California; Leon, France; Oslo, Norway; and, Zurich, Switzerland!  The K-Kids loved looking at the beautiful pictures of the beach in Hawaii and the humongous turtle on the beach.  They also enjoyed the pictures of the aquarium and San Francisco trolley.  I think the K-Kids were a little jealous as Flat Stanley was describing his favorite rides at Disneyland with Dillon's friends!!  They noticed similarities and differences between Oslo (Isabelle's friends) and Zurich (Max's friends) and learned about the flags, playgrounds and sports, and even saw a picture of a very unique drinking fountain in Zurich.  Macy's cousin took Flat Stanley around Leon, France and showed us a very interesting castle built of rocks.  Take a moment to check out our hallway to read and see more of Flat Stanley's adventures!

Isabelle was also able to take Flat Stanley to Colorado.  She taught him to ski and bungee jump!  Isabelle's friends, Lily and Leni also sent a picture from Shanghai.  We wrote them a letter about our school here in Evanston.


Flat Stanley then traveled to Boston to see Macy's cousin, India and Sweden with Avneil and his friend, and Washington D.C. to see Anisa's Godmother and Godbrother.  Good thing Flat Stanley is flat and can travel by mail - I am sure he was tired!

His last rounds of travel thus far was to Florida to visit a family friend of Maddie.  Flat Stanley loved the pool and the warm weather.  Maddie's friend also described other places she has visited over the year.  He then headed back to California to see Dillon's friend and learn about his school.  And, he took a long flight to Germany to visit Isabelle's friend, Hugo, and learn about their food and see his cool tree house!
