Activity Room Catches World Cup Fever!

Every four years, the FIFA World Cup shuts down cities across the world as fans breathlessly follow every one of their team's kicks, passes, headers and goals. The 2010 World Cup is almost over in South Africa, and while the tournament isn't nearly as popular in the United States as it is globally, some of the kids in the Activity Room recently caught World Cup fever!

As a break from the oppressive heat that has burdened Cambridge recently, the kids recently had access to a Playstation 2 system in the activity room. The system was hooked up to a video projector to allow the kids to play video games on the wall on a screen that was almost four feet across (taller than a few of the kids themselves)!

As mentioned before, the 2010 FIFA World Cup concludes this Sunday, as Spain and the Netherlands will battle for soccer's ultimate prize. Keep up with all the World Cup action here.
