Happy Aye-Aye's Adventures at Vivi's House

Vivi's class has an Aye-Aye (type of primate that lives in Madagascar) that they've named Happy. The children are taking turns bringing it home, taking it on adventures and filling in a journal about Happy's adventures. We had Happy last weekend. Happy and Vivi had many adventures!
Vivi introduced Happy Aye-Aye to all her other friends.

And took Happy to the carousel.

Vivi took Happy to the touch tanks and pointed out the seastars

Finger, foot, and chin painting - with Videos!

I told mommy I wanted to finger paint.

But then I thought foot painting would be even more fun.

Have you ever tried chin painting?
Whole body painting.

Mommy, do I look like a clown?

More painting -- she is so focused when she paints.

This was supposed to be a croquet maze. Vivi decided she was the croquet ball.

Trick-or-treat

Costumes on. Trying out light and bell.

The crew - ready to roll.

Trick-or-treat!

Wow. Look at this house!
Vivi had a great time trick-or-treating. But she had an even better time handing out candy after she finished trick-or-treating. She was shouting from the door "Come to Vivi's house. Vivi's house has candy!"
