Klong Toey Christmas

The American Woman's Club, I belong to, had the oportunity to donate gifts to the Monissary pre-school. The school is in the Klong Toey district, also known as the slums of Bangkok. The school is a mission program put in to help bring up the community's education.

Here are some pictures of the children we saw. We had fun playing with bubbles, stuffed animals, making crafts (jingle bell bracelets), singing and dancing. Santa even stopped in to help pass out toy filled backpacks.





We provided lunches for the school that day. All American Burger king. The kids enjoyed the BBQ dipping sauce on their chicken nuggets and french fries. "Where's the rice?" Everyone wore their crown. It was adorable to watch and interact with the 2-4 year old class. I was even able to practice speaking Thai. It was great to receive so many hugs from the children.
