Nairobi, Kenya

Lucia Genuardi

In the Cheery Children Center, The kids prepared to play music for us. Some of the children competed at an athletics competition and couldn't make it. They played Jingle Bells for us on Flutes, Clarinets and Trumpets. They have been playing for two years. They like to play instruments because they love music. Their ages are from 10 to 11 years old.

We learned that (Jum-bo) is how you say hi in their language. Some of our kids told them how to say things in chin and in spanish. Biak taught the kids how to say hi in chin, and Sira taught them how to say "Hi how are you?" in spanish which is "Ahola, como estas".

The children where most curious about our band at Delay. They talked about UIL. Then some of our girls told them how to do "The Renegade" From Tik Tok. Then we asked them what is a dance there in which a boy danced for us. After they sang in their language for us. The boy put his hand on his hip and danced as the kids on screen chanted.

They asked us about when the Band kids practice in which we told them about band practice.
They also asked about our buses. A boy asked about how many kids we have and about subjects. In their school they have six subjects.

Antonia asked about the fruit here.  There they stay at school from 6:00 am to 5:00 Pm which is 11 hours.
