We made a short documentary about the differences in customs when children loose their baby teeth in America and Cambodia. This was a global collaboration. Wanna contributed the sound file with the word "tooth" and Sara was able to repeat it almost perfectly. By the way, Harry's tooth still hasn't fallen out yet ....

They are so cute!!
Beth, I'm also teaching Khmer to a Vietnamese as part-time job. I wish I could be your tutor of Khmer to you, as well as Sara and Sarak.
Anyways, I love listening to the kids' voice - it sounds so sweet ;-)
Wanna,

Very sweet! US seems to have the same tradition as here: we change the tooth from under the pillow for a coin. (but after 7 teeth, you forget and your daughter comes to you in the morning crying that the fairy has not come around)

Beth: That was delightful! I really enjoyed your kids. Really impressive what can be done with one measly minute!
