Description: Get ready to pack your virtual bags and hop on the magical Culture Train as we head to the beautiful Hawaiian island of Oahu! Today, we are excited to meet Ms. Kaila, the Education Coordinator at Waimea Valley, to explore this lush, sacred valley filled with rich Hawaiian history, vibrant plants, and breathtaking landscapes. 🌊🌴 We’ll discover what makes Hawaii’s ecosystem so unique, learn about the history of Waimea Valley, and hear why Hawaiians introduce themselves with the mountains, rivers, and oceans connected to their heritage. Ms. Kaila even shares some fascinating stories about “alae,” a special, iron-rich red water used in traditional Hawaiian medicine. Along the way, we learn about the beautiful lolu palm trees, which play a big role in Hawaiian culture, and the challenges they face from invasive species. Plus, we uncover tips on how all of us—no matter where we are—can be mindful travelers and help protect our planet. 🌏 ********************************* 🌟 Share Your Winter Family Traditions with Us! ❄️✨ Do you and your family have a unique way of celebrating the winter season? 🎄☃️ Whether it's a special holiday tradition or a cozy winter activity, we want to hear all about it! 🎉 📲 Record your family’s fun winter tradition (iPhone audio works perfectly!) and send it to us at hello@culturekidsmedia.com, OR leave us a voicemail at www.culturekidsproductions.org! 🎙️ Don’t miss out—your story might be featured on Culture Kids!
