    Children knows the best...

    I was shopping today for groceries kilted. When I left the shop there were 4 about 10 years old girls getting gum from the bubble gum machine. I walked past them and heard one of them say to the others: "Look! A kilt!". I felt really good! 10 years old girls in Finland knows difference of kilt and skirt! I didn't even wear a sporran. Usually it goes in shops that the children say to theit moms/dads "Look, that man has a skirt!" and the parents correct: "No, it's a kilt."

    Well, didn't see that coming!

    It is good to see kids exposed to cultures outside of their home.

    Glad to hear that! Kids are a lot smarter than we adults give them credit.
