Learning About Llamas

The family of one of F's classmates raises llamas, shows them for 4-H, and spins the llama fleece and makes things from it. Yesterday this classmate's older sister brought her spinning wheel into the preschool room and showed the kids how to spin the wool. The students all got to make and keep a necklace with beads on it out of the spun fleece. Pretty neat!

Here's F wearing her llama hair necklace she made:
