Imagine owning only a pair of plastic flip flops. Imagine the heat and sand of the desert, living in huts on dirt floors and walking everywhere. Can you imagine how awful your feet might look and feel? (I know I am sure going to need a pedicure when I get home!)
All this dancing is hard on your feet!
Not every week at school needs to be full of hard work. We want to have fun as well and touch upon all levels of their life- even their feet!
So this past week, after our Math and French lessons, we talked about feet! Many of the girls suffer from cracked feet, sore spots, fungus or rashes and nasty looking feet syndrome! We talked about skin care, proper washing, how to treat fungus and when to be careful of things that could be contagious!
Then we split them into their small groups and passed out clippers, lime boards, pumice stones, buckets and soap! We enjoyed the shade under the hangar and had a lot of fun! Everyone got their feet all shiny clean and nails clipped, etc. Quite often they relaxed while their friend did the work – just like a spa!
Rebecca got in on the action too!
We love these girls from the soles of their feet to the top of their heads!

That’s so special! I’m sure you thoroughly disinfected the tools between people.

These may be the feet that “bring good news”….
