Back to the Pyramid Playground

At the Pyramid Playground, our touring families played several games to learn more about Egypt. They played "Follow the Pharoah," jumping, spinning or "walking like an Egyptian" when the Pharoah asked.
They also had a relay race with wet sponges. The sponges represented the scented cones that Egyptians would wear on their heads at elaborate feasts and celebrations. Because they were made of scented fat, as the cones got hot, the fact melted and released the scent!





Because today's lesson was about wisdom, playground visitors also had to use wisdom to untangle themselves after they all joined hands.
