American Girls Club :) February Meeting. :)

This past Saturday the American girls club met to discuss their character of the month, Kit Kittredge, she was a young girl living during the Great Depression. During this time many families couldnt afford to buy food or pay rent. To symbolize the lack of money the girls ate popcorn for a snack because during the Depression popcorn was a cheap snack that many people enjoyed. In the story Kit's family takes in boarders who were previously homeless, so the girls made signs that a homeless person or (hobo) which was what many people were during that era, would have had. They also played games and watched a movie that came out during this time period, The Wizard of Oz. Next Month's featured girl will be Molly, who is a very patriotic little girl, growing up while the world is at war. :) We hope to see you and your daughters at the Besore Library for our next meeting. :)
