I need some ideas for a Spanish Day at the school at which I work. I'll be helping a small group of 12 - 13 year-olds to create something Spanish and textile-related. "Spanish" in this context can be stretched to include Mexico and some of South America and the Caribbean.
They won't have great machine sewing skills so it has to be easy, with great visual impact. There isn't much budget (isn't that always the story with schools?) or much time - about four hours, including whipping them into shape and motivating them.
I'd be very grateful for any suggestions. I've already thought of "sit on your hands next time they're looking for volunteers".
