My Multicultural Family: The Olympic Summer Games

The Olympic Summer Games
As a mother in a multicultural family, I'm always looking for new ways to teach my kids about the world. My husband and I work very hard to blend the East and the West in our family. The more you blend cultures, the more you realize how important it is to teach your kids about the world around them.My kids have developed a deep love for their mixed heritage. I didn't expect that love to grow as quickly as it did. My oldest son loves sharing about his culture with everyone around him. Whether it's how to eat Indian food with his hands or his love for our holiday traditions, he's always talking about it.I don't want my children's passion to start and end with their own culture. I want them to see the beauty in the world around them and have a desire a desire to learn more. The more we teach our kids about the world around them, the more comfortable they'll be with themselves.What Can The Olympic Summer Games Teach My Multicultural Family?The 2016 Olympic Summer Games are right around the corner.
