Somali times

Check out this great children's animal book teaching kids Somali, English (and Dutch).

This Safari animal book is part of a series of trilingual children's books.

'As a member of the Somali diaspora in the Netherlands, I have always been inspired to share my roots with my children. The Somali language is a forgotten language and I don't want to deprive my children of the opportunity to learn that part of their identity.

Do you think it is important to pass on your Somali mother tongue to your children? Then this book is definitely worth it.

Stay tuned for more books:

Book 2 of this series is a numbers and shapes book.

Book 3 will cover the alphabet.'

Somalia 2017. I know I often share positive and neutral images, but progress does not happen overnight. There’s currently a drought going on in East Africa.

If you’re a Somali diaspora or from an East African country living abroad, help out your relatives and friends back in home. Ask your parents what you can do to help. If you’re non Somali and want to help, a good humanitarian organization that’s run by a Somali woman, is called Adeso. http://adesoafrica.org I’ve heard great things about this organization that wants to help people be self reliant.

The drought is caused by global warming that resulted in 2 failed rainy seasons. The next rainy season is supposed to come in April. In the meantime, help however you can. This should not have to result into a famine. Read about it if you need to catch up. Thank you.
