Lola
Our class hamster went on its first home visit and spent some time with Tanvi over the weekend. She realized that the hamster wanted a dark corner and gave her a tube which she has become comfortable in. You can see her daily here. Tomorrow is the deadline for hand drawn hamster pictures to choose our hamsterTV design from!
