Museum Day
And on 18th May it's the Museum Day. We have visited lots of museums here in Eivissa. We like museums, especially Art ones.
Let's visit the MOMA in New York, the Museum of Modern Art. It's great!
There are lots of activities on the MOMA website for kids. Choose the ones you like best.
Internet Day
17th May is Internet Day. On Sunday we'll celebrate the web day!
But remember two important things:
1. Use the Internet safely. Don't write personal information on social networking websites. You won't be able to rub it out. So, be careful!
2. Block cyberbullying. Report abuse. Use the Internet to communicate, learn and have fun. Never use it to play evil tricks on your friends.
Watch the video, done by the European Comission, and think about its message.
And, of course, it's a day to play too.
Let's learn some vocabulary on computers. Click on each picture, play and learn.

Happy Mother's Day!
Dear Mummy,
Thank you for taking care of me!
I love you so much!
Today is Mother's Day in Spain. Don't forget to congratulate your mum. You can do it online:
Remember that your mommy is the woman who takes care of you. So, you can also congratulate your grandma or your auntie.
And you can play here with your mum. Have fun together!
What gift have you given your mummy? This is my suggestion:
1. A big kiss
2. A bigger hug
3. The most important promise:
Mummy, I promise I will always do my homework and study hard!
And finally, watch the video.
Mums make it all better:
By the way, is today Mother's Day in England? No, it isn't.
They celebrate Mother's Day on the fourth Sunday in Lent. So this year Mother's Day was on 22nd March.

So, now, read our books and listen to the stories.
