New title: Families
of Costa Rica
Ten-year-old Estibaliz is growing up in Cabuya, which is
very close to a national nature reserve and has a thriving ecotourism
business. Follow Estibaliz to her school and be part of her classes. After
school, she does her chores and we visit with her parents while they work.
The next day, Estibaliz walks to an island during low tide and later in
the evening attends an exciting soccer game followed by a fun-filled community
dance.
José, a ten-year-old
boy, lives in Escazu near the capital of San Jose with his parents and
3-year-old brother. His father imports vehicles from the United States
while his mother teaches swimming lessons. We accompany José to
school where he conducts experiments, attends his soccer practice, and
end the night by eating sushi made by their housekeeper.
Now we have 23 countries and
growing. We are currently working on Families of Kenya. If you do not
see your country of interest in our series and suggest a country, family
and schools, please let us know.
The Families of the World Video Series takes us through a typical day in
the lives of two families in each country featured. Narrated by children, the Families
of the World Video Series introduces you to each family's housing styles, foods,
clothing, religion, schools and places of business. This is the next best thing
to visiting and living with families in each of the countries. This highly acclaimed
30-minute documentary videos are available for 18 countries. Recommended for grades
K-5.
