Module 4 – Post 3 – Awchimo

Awchimo is a website designed to teach children more about Metis heritage, culture, history, and the Metis language, Michif.  In addition to the categories mentioned, the site is organized into click-able links including colouring, games, stories and recipes that are embedded in a fun, colourful picture.  The site is easy to navigate and has many appealing activities for children, however the material presented does seem to be too complex for younger readers.  The site provides a good amount of useful information for anyone wanting to have their children learn more about Metis culture in a fun and engaging environment.
