Billy Makes the South Island

At Pataitai stations we are able to use playdough to fill in the map to make landscapes. Billy made the landscape of the South Island of New Zealand. He is pointing to where Wanaka is.

During Pataitai time we can use playdough to make landscapes filling in the outline of the New Zealand Map. We then have to put the person where we think Wanaka is.
