One of my favorite things about being a parent is that I'm constantly learning fascinating facts about the world - stuff that I normally would not be exposed to.

My child's current obsession? Drawing flags.

So yesterday I bought her a book about flags and we learned about the (her favorite flag in the book) - "a square emblem commonly used as a flag to represent some native peoples of the Andes."

Find out more about it here:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiphala

a photo of the Wiphala flag. it's made up of 7 squares by 7 squares in different colors. from left to right: white, yellow, orange, red, mauve, blue and green. the next row has the same colors, one square off, so that each color appears in a solid diagonal pattern
