Dear Maddy,

You will remember that mommy set up a game for you such that you could earn stickers before you go to Japan tomorrow. One sticker would buy you one small present eitehr for yourself or for your friends/family.

The rules are that you will get one sticker, if you (i) say hi to (a) Gung Gung, (b) Por Por and (c) 5 people that you know, (ii) had not been naughty 3 times withion 1 day and (iii) that you will get 2 stickers if you were good in your Mandarin class. The purpose of the game was to get you to understand that your actions are connected with your results. In so doing, you could understand that what you do will have a relation and connection as to what you will get as a treat. Meanwhile, it will also motivate you to “get out of your comfort zone” and try doing new things, for instance, say “hi” to people.

When in Japan, your key areas of learning would be empathy. This will allow your to try stepping outside of yourself and see how other people feel. Once you learn about empathy, it will definitely improve your communication skills and ease your temperament.
