Tile Painting: What’s in a Letter?
February 25, 2018 @ 11:00 am - 3:00 pm
Did you know that the letters of the alphabet were created based on things they looked like? This Family Sunday, we’ll uncover the history of letters and the meanings behind them, then paint what we find on clay. You’ll be surprised to discover that some letters still resemble the objects they were named after. Can you guess which letter was inspired by a monkey? (Hint: It comes after ‘P’).
