The Houston Holocaust Museum is currently working on a project that I think everyone should participate in. Its called the Butterfly Project. Basically, they are trying to collect 1.5 million butterflies. Each butterfly represents a child that was lost. Ultimately, the butterflies will be part of an exhibit that will occur the Spring 2012. The following is a link for those who want more details.

The ICDL collection was created with two primary audiences in mind: 1) Children ages 3-13, as well as librarians, teachers, parents, and caregivers who work with children of these ages. 2) International scholars and researchers in the area of children's literature.
The mission of the International Children’s Digital Library Foundation is to excite and inspire the world's children to become members of the global community – children who understand the value of tolerance and respect for diverse cultures, languages and ideas -- by making the best in children's literature available online.

No tape was harmed in the making of the display.
Here are pics of Thank you letters written to Lori from Discovery Green staff. She was a tour guide for Kipp Shine Prep's 3rd grade class. If you read the letters it looked like the kiddies really enjoyed it!
Also, thanks to Carolina for her innovative display idea as an alternative to using tape.
