Dental Missionary


On Saturday I volunteered to help teach Chinese children about dental hygiene. Seeing as I don't speak mandarin, most of my input involved colouring in, but it was still fun. This was my class. They were all very well disciplined. (As you'd probably expect out here.)



And this is a play some other volunteers put on for the school. 

 
It mostly involved holding up giant food types and getting the kids to shout if they were good or bad for teeth. Simple, yet effective. (Dove is Chinese Galaxy.)



At the end of the day we all sang a song to the tune of 'row, row, row your boat', but rewritten as 'brush, brush, brush your teeth' (in mandarin). That was the best bit.
