Since I came to Africa, I've been working with a class in NY for cultural interchange. The little kids have loved this as we shared our differences in food, transportation, housing, doing laundry, our clinics, and toys we play with. We've exchanged stories via pictures of our family trees, things we like to do, and most recently my teen club did a journal project for the NY kids with stories about themselves and all about Botswana. The NY kids who are ending their school year, did a community walk showing all the pictures sent for everyone to see, along with a banner. All in all it's been huge success of kids in America learning all about village life in Botswana, and our kids in Africa getting to see faces and pictures that lit up their eyes.
