Weitblick Kindergarten Day 1

Today was my first day at the Kita Weitblick Kindergarten in Ettlingen, Germany! I arrived at 8:30 and met the kids I would be working with. After lunch, the kids were set down for nap time. I thought that sounded like a great idea jetlagged and tired as well, but instead I went upstairs to the older kids group. Here, more kids, more energy, and more chaos. I ended up spending time with a group of a few girls practicing speaking and selling each other Fisher Price ice cream. Perhaps the most memorable part of the day was when one girl charged me 20£ for a single cone, but said the extra is donated to Ukraine. A lot of the kids are aware of the crisis, or even came from Ukraine. Thus, they require more assimilation and speaking, precisely where I help out. Though exhausted from the day, I look forward to returning tomorrow and spending more time with them!
