Maya goes to St Vincent's

Keira's preschool, St. Vincent's, asked families to come in and talk to the class about their cultural traditions.  I asked Maya to come in to speak about India while she was on break from Berkeley.  Luckily she said yes, and she did an amazing job!  She talked about elephants and holidays, and had them dot paint an elephant picture and she wrote their name in Hindi.  It was adorable!  The teachers said that she should be a preschool teacher  -- I told them she was going to be a doctor!  Keira was beyond excited to have her auntie come to her school.  When we arrived, they said she had been talking about it all morning!

My contribution was mango lassi, which I made at home and intended for the kids to try at lunch time.  When I went into school the next day, all the kids informed me that the mango lassi was "too yucky"!! Hahaha!  I love how honest kids are.  I guess I didn't add enough sugar for their tiny tastebuds.
