One Sky One World

When we think of bringing culture into our children's lives, it is often the culture of our own families. We surround them with the food and celebrations of our home lands. We share photos and memories to keep the traditions alive. 

So why is it important to learn about culture? 

Global Citizens for Change
It's fun! Could you imagine a birthday party without a piƱata? What about March without St Patrick's Day? and really, how would we kiss if it weren't for the French (hehe)?

As Orange County continues to grow more diverse each year, we are surrounded by different cultures where we live, work and go to school. It's important for us to understand and relate to one another.

The intention of my blog "One Sky One World: Multicultural Adventures in Orange County" is to provide you with family friendly ideas to explore different cultures in Orange County. 

Events: I will partner up with cultural groups to provide you with all the details for any local cultural celebrations or events. 
Activities: I will show you places around the county that offer cultural activities or insight (or how to find culture in places you may not even think to look)
Resources: I will provide a fun list of resources that include family friendly restaurants (that offer a cultural experience), Cultural Centers, language classes, etc...

Now, let's go explore the Melting Pot World of Orange County!















A little about me.... 

My name is Trisha Jones. I'm married to Derrick and I have two sons, Martin - 5 and step son Malcolm - 15. 

We are a proud melting pot family that loves to learn about all cultures!
