Write like an Egyptian!

But that's not all.  Upriver from the pyramids were more kingdoms that left their temples and sculptures such as the Kingdom of Kush in Nubia:

And Axum in modern Ethiopia:

We will visit these ancient lands through writing, story telling, painting, sculpture and construction.  Walk, talk, paint, write like an Egyptian or a Nubian or an Axumite all the exciting week long!
