The girls received these umbrellas from a girl at school who was celebrating her birthday.
Indonesian birthday parties are a little different - if you are invited, you get a gift!
The girls have received some gorgeous things...last week, they got matching pink, terry towelling, Mickey Mouse bathrobes.
In the past, they have received things such as pink, carved wooden, Disney Princess stools with their names engraved in them and Disney backpacks!
When it was their birthdays last year, straight after Christmas, a month apart, their school friends (66 of them...oh, did I mention that you have to buy gifts for all the students in the school?!) were lucky enough to get party bags filled with candy and tacky plastic toys from us. They must think we're CHEAPSKATES!
No. We're just poor schoolteachers.
