Today I taught some of the older kids how to crochet and we also made friendship bracelets from yarn. The younger children just braided (or plaited as they say on Dominica) their bracelets, while the older girls used the more difficult knotting technique I taught them. All the girls here are experts at braiding since they learn at a young age to braid their hair elaborately so they picked up everything I taught them quickly.
