Languages

there are over 820 different languages in Papua New Guinea, with English, Papua New Guinean sign language, and Tok Pisin being more common.

We hope to make some of the information we learn into a 'lapbook' for the kids to view as they please.  I'll add photos when I can.

Lapbooking (according to Lapbooking 101) is:  ...a project book or file folder, laid out in a creative manner, that fits in the child’s lap...
