This blog is dedicated to sharing the concept that our hands are essential to learning- that we engage the world and its wonders, sensing and creating primarily through the agency of our hands. We abandon our children to education in boredom and intellectual escapism by failing to engage their hands in learning and making.

dinner at EastWest Institute
Some things are hard to explain, so I won't bother. We had our rather traditional thanksgiving feast in a rather unconventional location, the EastWest Institute in Manhattan with a number of young people from various nations, some of whom had never had a traditional Thanksgiving before.
For Arkansans to have a view like what you find in the photo above, is unconven- tional. What you see in the photo at left is not. Families throughout the US have spent the last two days preparing feasts like this... Clear expressions of wisdom of the hands.
