The purpose of this activity was to create a connection between the children and help them learn about each other\u2019s cultures, lifestyles, and environments through questions and answers. Both groups of children prepared questions and shared them with each other, which created excitement and curiosity among them.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #339966;\">Children\u2019s Participation and Learning Experience<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/myidentityschool.org\/wp_meripehchan\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-03-31-04.29.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3954 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/myidentityschool.org\/wp_meripehchan\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-03-31-04.29-300x225.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a>When centre children received the questions from the Finnish children, they found the activity very interesting. Some of the questions were easy and fun, while others were a bit difficult to understand. With the help of the volunteers, the children tried their best to understand and answer all the questions. This made the activity more engaging and educational. The children learned about a different culture, including how other children live, think, and spend their daily lives. It also helped improve their thinking and communication skills. After completing their answers, the centre children prepared their own questions and sent them to the Finnish children. They are now excitedly waiting for the responses, which has increased their curiosity and interest.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #339966;\">Impact and Future Interest<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/myidentityschool.org\/wp_meripehchan\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-03-31-at-230.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3956 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/myidentityschool.org\/wp_meripehchan\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-03-31-at-230-300x225.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/myidentityschool.org\/wp_meripehchan\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-03-31-at-230-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/myidentityschool.org\/wp_meripehchan\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-03-31-at-230-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/myidentityschool.org\/wp_meripehchan\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-03-31-at-230-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/myidentityschool.org\/wp_meripehchan\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-03-31-at-230-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/myidentityschool.org\/wp_meripehchan\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-03-31-at-230.jpeg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>Overall, this activity was very successful.
