Vetkoek (pronounced fetkook)! Yum. Heart attack on a plate but nice now and again
Please do let us Saffas know if you need any help with anything? Sorry I only saw this thread now, haven't been on here that much. You've been given some lovely advice from the other South Africans here
My mindees know lots about Africa and South Africa now... thing is they all want to come with me on holiday now and tell their parents this!
One family have been asking me about going to the Kruger National park (safari) later in the year but the kids are 2 and 3 and in my opinion, too young to fully enjoy and appreciate the (huge!) game park, plus loo stops are few and far btwn!
Wildlife, sealife, food.. all play a big roll in South Africa. If you'd like any photos of wild animals to print out for the kids, I have loads - hubby and I are keen photographers and wildlife mad. You could print them out to A3 size if need be
We all learn about eachother - my one little mindee was born in the States... so we learn about America too. We learn about other countries too, but all mine are little (oldest is 3 yrs), so we dont go into too much depth about other countries as yet.
Re musical instruments, try and get some bongo drums.. the kids love ours! And the wooden instruments mentioned already. They're traditionally African, and are also lots of fun for all to enjoy. They also love the rain maker.
