We've
seen too many boring websites
full of information, so we thought we would make this one a little
more exciting. Here are a
list of games and activities that you can play on our site and
when you are tired of playing games, click here
to create your own website and find out how we made this one!
These games work best on Internet Explorer Version
5 and you may experience some problems on an older browser.
Battleship
Game: In the early 1900's, an unusual fountain
was built in the arboretum. It was a battleship, made of scraps
of stone and old metal parts, built by a Father Vullinghs. It
remains a mystery as to why it is significant or what exactly
it represents. What do you think this battleship might be about?
While you're thinking about it, try this cool battleship game!

arboretum and to learn more about this strange fountain.
Crab
Race: Some days, the students would go down to
the beach to collect shells, rocks, and other interesting things.
Sometimes they even found crabs running along the beach. They
liked to use these shells to make arrangements for display. Have
you ever seen crabs running on the beach? Take a look at this
crazy crab race. Can you guess which crab will make it to the
finish line first? Click on the color of the crab you think will
win.
