Instructions – Children’s Walk Day Passport Learning activity Materials Needed: 4 stamps and stamp pads, copies of the slides and all highlighted items below (most can be borrowed, found around the house or purchased from a local craft store). Promote: Email about the activity in advance of the walk by using the flier in slide 2. Prepare: Print copies of slides 3-4 double-sided (black & white looks fine!). Make one for each child; Print slides 5-9 to post at the four passport stations. Gather supplies for the stations: Station 1 (slide 5): Water create a water carrying simulation with buckets of water tied to a wooden dowel or have a jerry can of water (can be purchased at amazon.com or at a local garden/tool supply, or simply have milk jugs of water and various buckets of water. Station 2 (slide 6): Set up a table with four place settings three have napkins, silverware etc. Have a sample breakfast at one (cereal, banana, milk); sample lunch at another (sandwich, chips, carrots and dip, yogurt cup, apple and a soft drink); sample dinner at the third (spaghetti with sauce, broccoli, roll, fruit, glass of tea, and dessert); at the fourth no frills just a bowl of rice or a tortilla. Station 3 (slide 7): Set up a “typical” school in the developing world. Place a blanket on the ground, buy a small chalk board from the local craft store or have one marble composition notebook, a ruler, a pencil and perhaps a large stone for using as a chair. Station 4 (slide 8 and 9): Set up a table with the picture of the hospital (US); a first aid and safety kit which can be borrowed or purchased at your local drug store (Nicaragua); a Ziploc bag with a few band aids and an alcohol swab and a couple of aspirin (Mozambique); a small bag of some dried leaves (West Timor). Recruit a volunteer to stand at each station and encourage the child to read the info in the passport and then to engage in conversation about the station. i.e. “How does it feel to carry the water? How far could YOU carry that water?; What is YOUR school like? How hard would it be to learn if you didn’t have a desk?; how long do you think you could go with only eating rice?; If you had a broken leg where would you want to live? After each “traveler” discusses the issues, put a stamp in the appropriate box on the passport. Wrap-up: At the end of the walk have a final destination where you give a small prize ( a temporary tattoo, a bookmark, a button, a pencil, an eraser - if you have any CROP Hunger Walk swag, that would be great!)

Instructions – Children’s Walk Day Passport Learning activity

Materials Needed: 4 stamps and stamp pads, copies of the slides and all highlighted items below (most can

be borrowed, found around the house or purchased from a local craft store).

Promote: Email about the activity in advance of the walk by using the flier in slide 2.

Prepare: Print copies of slides 3-4 double-sided (black & white looks fine!). Make one for each child; Print

slides 5-9 to post at the four passport stations. Gather supplies for the stations:

• Station 1 (slide 5): Water – create a water carrying simulation with buckets of water tied to a wooden

dowel or have a jerry can of water (can be purchased at amazon.com or at a local garden/tool supply, or

simply have milk jugs of water and various buckets of water.

• Station 2 (slide 6): Set up a table with four place settings – three have napkins, silverware etc. Have a

sample breakfast at one (cereal, banana, milk); sample lunch at another (sandwich, chips, carrots and

dip, yogurt cup, apple and a soft drink); sample dinner at the third (spaghetti with sauce, broccoli, roll, fruit,

glass of tea, and dessert); at the fourth – no frills – just a bowl of rice or a tortilla.

• Station 3 (slide 7): Set up a “typical” school in the developing world. Place a blanket on the ground, buy a

small chalk board from the local craft store or have one marble composition notebook, a ruler, a pencil

and perhaps a large stone for using as a chair.

• Station 4 (slide 8 and 9): Set up a table with the picture of the hospital (US); a first aid and safety kit

which can be borrowed or purchased at your local drug store (Nicaragua); a Ziploc bag with a few band

aids and an alcohol swab and a couple of aspirin (Mozambique); a small bag of some dried leaves

(West Timor).

Recruit a volunteer to stand at each station and encourage the child to read the info in the passport and then to

engage in conversation about the station. i.e. “How does it feel to carry the water? How far could YOU carry

that water?; What is YOUR school like? How hard would it be to learn if you didn’t have a desk?; how long do

you think you could go with only eating rice?; If you had a broken leg – where would you want to live? After each

“traveler” discusses the issues, put a stamp in the appropriate box on the passport.

Wrap-up: At the end of the walk – have a final destination where you give a small prize ( a temporary tattoo, a

bookmark, a button, a pencil, an eraser - if you have any CROP Hunger Walk swag, that would be great!)

Where is your place at the table?

The average American eats 5 lbs of food a day.

Here you see a typical day’s meals.

In the developing world, where many live in already precarious situations, a disaster such as an earthquake, flood or drought can leave people with as little as 3 oz of rice/grain to eat in a day. A person can not live for long on only 3 oz of food.

There is enough produced on our planet for every man, woman and child to have 2 lbs of food a day. Thank you for sharing of your abundance so that all will be fed.
