Games Olympics




So now the newest update: When I am not annoying everybody about their health cards, interviews, photos, etc. I've been spending time with the children, playing with them, talking to them and simply having a good time. For example, I brought some table games from Germany along and there were two other games already here. So last Friday we had the chance to introduce these games and since then I don't think a day has gone by, when they haven't asked for the "Kimberely" game, which is actually called "Kimble" ;)

A very big day were the Game Olympics on this Friday with five stations and rotating groups. The one thing that actually did make people rotate was the prize, a candy, one would get after collecting five stamps(You can see the stamp cards on the picture). It was actually two candies for every kid, but psssst.

The first station was jump with a rope so many times as the product of two dices showed, then we had one station with a dice game and we had a basketball station, I played fruit salad(Bäumchen wechsel dich) and finally there was the station "Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes", which we then presented in the end in a circle. For sure it was a successful Friday afternoon.


Now I still need to introduce two of my darlings. This mischievous pair of 12 year old boys (Munashe and Takudzwa) are as inseparable as one could possibly imagine, even though they go to different schools. And yes, they have invented the game of challenging Kukka as often as possible. To be honest, it usually is as much fun for me as for them, plus it is nice to see two so intelligent boys, who stick together and also who show enough intelligence and bravery to challenge ME! An example? So we were playing fruit salad and both of them were apples, well guess what happened, yes, exactly they spend the whole game switching places until at one point I didn't look and suddenly out of nothing they were separately seated.
