Веб-квест "Love is in the air!"

 

Веб-квест

"Love is in the air!"

Children, do you like holidays? And play fun games? And give and receive presents? It is fine when the people are friendly and they want to do everything for their sweethearts.

What is love? 

Love is a very special and meaningful word to each human being. Each human being has his or her own thoughts about love to guide himself or herself to land safely and smoothly into the kingdom of Love. Without this proper idea of love, people would be acting like a blind person searching for the light with thousand of obstacles in front of him. 

Love is the world’s greatest mystery. It is a feeling that holds the most happiness and the most extreme sadness or anger. 

Dear children,

I wish you success!
