Ontario - Yours To Discover

So, obviously, the CN Tower is the tallest building in Canada. That's cool, I think, and worth learning about! But do you think I could find any CN Tower kids' crafts on the internet? Nope. I found two colouring pages. Lame. Anyways....


I printed out an outline of the CN Tower at 800% so it would be quite tall. After looking at some real pictures (including some oldies of me and Jeff) I gave them the pieces and had them build it like a puzzle. Then (not to scale, though my math brain really really wanted me to figure out how big the houses truly should be) we pasted on the city buildings. Daniel drew the Skydome. And of course it was stormy and the poor CN Tower is getting hit by lightning... many times. They loved this fact about it. And also that there is a spinning restaurant they could eat lunch in. 


And just for kicks... I took a picture of a picture that was taken before I owned a digital camera. 2001.
