Gifts for School Children
Hi,
We are going on the Tanzania and Kenya Tour departing on Sept. 7th. In the guest documents booklet there is a section about a local school visit. The booklet mentions that we should feel free to bring "supplies" for donation. My wife and I are former teachers (actually Speech and Language Pathologists but we both worked in schools) and we are looking forward to the school visit and would love to bring anything that we could that would enrich the children's school experience or their lives in general. Is there anything more specific that anyone could suggest. Could you tell us how old the children are and what would be most beneficial and needed for them that is feasible for us to carry with us.
Thanks. Arnie & Ellen

Gary, the soccer ball is a great idea. I just got 2 (different sizes) and needles and I'm really excited about seeing the kids with them.
Thanks for the suggestions.

I was on the June 20th tour and we went to the school and the children were just adorable and so very appreciative of everything. Some of our companions, because of the airline that they flew were able to pack their Tauck duffel bags with goodies! Yes, they love to see their pictures on the digital screen and love to take pictures too! Anything you bring with you is greatly appreciated. It makes you realize how much we have here! Enjoy all your adventures, the tour is absolutely amazing and breathtaking!! There isn't a single thing that I can say was the best - it was just spectacular!!!!
