Activity Village Newsletter November 2005



It's been a while since the last newsletter came out, but we hope this one will make up for lost ground. We have details of new additions to the website, news of a new UK television show looking for families to take part, our usual poem, quotes and reader's tip, and a collection of links to interesting websites to visit.

we forget that he is someone today."

The Chronicles of Narnia - The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe

Narnia



The new Disney film of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe is nearly upon us, and I can't wait!

Enjoy our ideas for quick Narnia crafts and a huge collection of Narnia links, including Narnia coloring pages, desktop wallpapers, learning activities and much more!
