ESAAY PASSPORT TO ADVENTURE

Children are invited to pick up a passport at the entrance. Take your passport around the Celebration to learn about Asian culture. Look for clues to find your passport destinations. For younger children, we have placed a large picture of the passport stamp at each destination booth to make it easier to find. Once your passport is completely stamped, go to the ESAAY booth and get a prizee!
