Weighty Matter

As we took a walk in the market street, I tried to explain a non digital weighing scale to Anushka from a distance.

The indulgent banana seller called us over ( I promptly admitted I was not carrying money).

She let Anushka hold the weights/ place them and helped place bananas to show her how it worked. A practical lesson from a natural educator.

God bless the lady.
