Kids R Kids

My favorite thing about being a host family for the African Children's Choir was not the fact the that Rose, Lynate and Barbara were wonderfully polite and respectful. Indeed, that was refreshing. The many, "Thank you Auntie." and "Yes, please Auntie." were delightful - especially with their accent. However, what really had the greatest impact on me was seeing with my own eyes that children really are the same no matter what country is their home.

After school playing with foam letters.
The girls loved spelling their names. We didn't plan this activity - the girls found the letters in our storage bench.

After dinner (3 servings of pot roast, rice, gravy and green beans) we got out the paint pens and glitter glue. Uncle Ray had a great time as the "Creative Assistant."

Bedtime! But not not without singing Auntie Robin's favorite song Salt and Light (in honor of the many dashes of salt the girls added to their dinner) and a story about Too Many Frogs."
