Super Hero Capes and Masks: Last week, our keiki designed their kāpala (stamp) for their super hero capes, we are planning to have them stamp their cape on Monday. We will be sending home capes for ‘ohana to kōkua and add to cape. Adding more to the cape is optional, but we wanted to offer the opportunity for ‘ohana to support keiki. Each keiki will also be given a mask that will need to be designed according to their element from the fishpond. This will be a ‘ohana project. Be creative and have fun.
