Using fork and knife for the first time.


"Miss, can we eat with fork and knife again tomorrow?"

Here in India having your food with fork and knife is not commonly practiced. In fact, most of the Indians don't use silverwear at all, but their hands. Do you know that they only use their right hand? The left hand is used instead of toilet paper...

The Bright Star Education kids learned that in other countries people use silverwear or sticks to eat with. During our snack time they all sat down around the table and  tried eating with fork and knife and learned how to set the table. It was very difficult, but they enjoyed it a lot. After finishing their food they asked if it was possible to eat with silverwear again  the next day.
Then, Prasanna asked: "Miss, when will we eat with sticks, like they do in China? "
Well, uhm, I guess we need to practice that a little...
