Clint spoke to Jin's class about China today. He had the full attention of all 6 of the three year olds for 25 minutes. It was both very precious and humorous to observe. Both Jin and Ms. Cheryl wore their traditional Chinese dress as well. Clint spoke about eating Chinese food with chopsticks to Chinese letters. Jin was an excellent assistant. Papa and Jin also taught his class a few Chinese phrases. They got a kick out of that. For snack Jin shared fortune cookies and blueberry marshmallows, a Chinese treat, with his friends.

Playing the calabash
A calabash is a woodwind instrument similar to the recorder. It is made from a calabash gourd which is also used to make pipes. The mouth piece is made from ox bone. Very detailed painting is done on the front.
