During circle time R really likes to play a drawing game where each person takes a turn adding a part to the drawing without seeing what the other people have drawn. I am not sure why she has decided this is a good circle time activity but she loves it and given the choice she will do it when the circle is still open, with the candles burning and the passage to the spirit world still open. R likes to add a lot of poo jokes which surely please the ancestors as well. Below are two of our recent pieces complete with the poo captions.
I think what is really important about these times, beyond just being together as a family, is that R takes ownership of some of the circle time. While I am pretty sure this is not traditional metis activity, it is meaningful to her and something she organizes and leads.
