Global Kids : 50+ Games, Crafts, Recipes and More from Around the World by Homa Sabet Tavangar and Sophie Fatus - ADVISABLE

Global Kids : 50+ Games, Crafts, Recipes and More from Around the World by Homa Sabet Tavangar and Sophie Fatus 50 cards. ACTIVITY BOOK Barefoot Books, 2019, $15.

BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3), EL, MS - ADVISABLE 

AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH 

Global Kids is a set of activity cards to get your kids thinking and acting globally. Each card contains a large illustration and a short introduction to the activity, then, turn the card over for a complete description - including the country's flag, detailed instructions for doing the activity and sometimes additional fun facts. Cards are divided into 5 categories: Help Out, Celebrate, Eat, Play and Create. 

I love the whimsical illustrations of the multicultural kids. The activities are engaging, some need grownup help, but a 6th-7th grader can certainly do almost everything on their own. This would be a fun addition to a classroom - fun "station ideas" if you are studying a certain country or idea.
