A Day in the Life: Grandparents Day in San Mateo

In San Mateo, Grandparents' Day was a happy event. The children were very excited to welcome their grandparents to their classes.

In the Infant Community...


 We greeted our grandparents...




 ...served them water...

...and food...


 ...sang to them...
 ...and even gave them back massages!



In the Children's House..

...we showed our grandparents our many activities.

We served tea...
..as well as baked goods we prepared especially for our grandparents.

We also sang songs!

In Elementary, it was business as usual. We showed our grandparents how we work and take care of our classroom...


 ...and we gathered, to give presentations we created especially for them!








 We had a great time having our grandparents with us...
...and we hope they had a great time too!

The Erdkinder visited Self Help for the Elderly in San Mateo...

We interviewed our elders in Mandarin, and learned about their lives.


Some had very interesting stories to tell. 

After our interviews, we joined them for lunch, and continued our conversations.
