Book bargains for Vera & Teo 🌻

 

Well pleased with the selection of children's learning books I got from my friend in the Pavillions Uxbridge.  We both are helping Ukrainian refugees so have a good catch up time.   I will be visiting my local refugee family tomorrow so will take these for Vera & Teo.  Read on my page about the Windsor Castle experience we had .. amazing that Teo sung with the other invited children in St George's chapel Windsor Castle & more

Today been a videocall with Leen in Belgium and we have been chatting about how Teo is a Professor of Linguistics like her.  I hope they meet one day  but we need to set up a videocall sometime at least ..  between them they speak Arabic, Dutch, French,Turkish, Russian, Ukrainian, English ..both go on Duolingo Leen is learning Turkish as well as Italian... and told her best learn some German as cousin Adam and Leanne are in Germany and speaking this.  

I love it how they are not getting confused, see patterns in languages and can even analyse them. We have something truly wonderful happening with our refugee children. Hope for better understanding of one another as a Global family. Asked Leen which language would you use to speak with Teo. Hhhhhh English she said .. good I will understand then ..

Adding this on 24th February 💛💙🌻.. I forgot to update you on the books I got for Teo and Vera.. and even Grandma enjoyed too. The photos from an afternoon of activity. Grandma enjoyed word searching so I will get more books for this.  I have had flu been ill for 2 weeks.. a mean critter of a virus. So missed visiting family over half term. But now healing and recovering hope to catch up next week .. wow March next week too.
