Finland Like an Unschooler

          Hello, Internet!
 Lisi here. My sister, Lily, has always been a natural writer, where as I struggle more with this whole "put creativity in words!" thing - I'm more the person who dumps a bucket of paint on the page, sticks glitter on it, and calls it a masterpiece. Even though this is true, I'm very excited to have this blog. 
         Lily and I sometimes like to sit by the laminated world map we have hanging on the wall, and take our dry erase markers and doodle different facts about countries all over their representation of them on the map. So Lily told me to pick a country on the map- "pick a country! Any country!" And so I did. I picked Finland. At first she seemed a little bit disappointed - like she was hoping for a country she knew little more about. But after we were done with this project, we both agreed  that it was a great pick.  
 We researched it, put it together, then we made a Prezi that features some facts that are a little more interesting - and weird- than its population or size. Here is the link.
