Living in Ghana with Kids (What do the KIDS Think?) Moving to Africa with Kids

[@ExpatLifeGhana]

Oh My Goodness... Y'all in our community are AMAZING ❤️️! So many of you have asked if you could send things to the boys and we can't refuse your blessings (mostly because they're both here jumping up and down as they read the comments over my shoulder 😉). Our address is: Tony and Ayo Jones PO Box CE 11162 Tema, Ghana (West Africa) BUT... please know that if it gets to be more than we need (#LivingThatGhanaLife), then we'll take some items and donate them to other kids in the neighborhood, the Community School, or the nearby school for Autism here in Tema. #SharingIsCaring #PayItForward

[@TheRichardsonsJourney]

I’ll be going to the store sometime this week to pick up some things for the boys; is there anything you two need Ayo and Tony (i.e. grits or super glue)?

Came to live in ghana from the uk when my son was 4 yrs. We used to go back regularily. Recently we went back and he was like a fish out of water. I noticed as he got older and older, the uk became less attractive for him. I never really had any issues of him missing things in the uk because he was so young and all he needed at that time was his mummy. You will find as time goes on the tables will turn for them and ghana will become there main focus.

When they first moved to the Gambia with their parents in 2015 they really did not enjoy Gambia.They missed America so much and wanted to return.They missed the fast food,life styles,friends etc etc in the USA ..But today if you see the BAG kids in the Gambia now,maaan,they love love love love Gambia and do NOT want to move back to America.It is really amazing to see how they wear Gambia like a badge.One of the BAG kids has the tattoo of the African continent on her body and they speak the local wolof language..Yes they LOVE Gambia and the African continent soooooooo much that they do not want to leave Africa. ..

I am not good with that one but my 13 yr client when I worked at a group home mastered it. You won’t make box Mac and cheese or velveeta either. Just practice that is how I learned baked Mac and cheese. And you can change it added keilbosa sausages if you can find some

If you are still looking for schools for your kids, I will recommend SOS, GIS and Galaxy International. They are more American based, however they blend the Ghanaian curriculum as well, and I believe the kids would love it. I know you mentioned you prefer schools within Tema, but don't be too fixed on location provided its a good school your kids like and its within Accra. The driving time back and forth is just a small price to pay as compared to the joy your kids will derive (socializing with other kids, etc). I would have mentioned Lincoln, but their fees are ridiculously expensive. All the same I hope you find this information useful.

[@ExpatLifeGhana]

One personal advice, you will have to put up with what you find locally. Good and bad, remember what africans go through when they live overseas. Your home is your home and a foreign country isn't it. However, you can make it your home only if you are willing to go with what you have. 😉I believe you guys can do it 💪🏾

Aww such awesome children having a special experience. I started following your family just before you left US. As a grandparent with boys similar ages as Leo and Luke. It was the beginning of the pandemic and I had plans to repatriate encouraged by your journey. I started to imagine what life could be like for my own grandchildren if I had them visit me I. Ghana or Gambia. Now am still stuck here 🇬🇧. I recall how I imagined transitioning with my allotment garden and getting the grandchildren involved as I felt they would benefit and learn a lot more from the outdoor activity whilst settling into a FREE (organic lifestyle) . I had visions of (for example) growing vegetable in raised beds and recycling all the vegetable kitchen waste as compost as I have learnt to do here in my back garden.

[@ExpatLifeGhana]

Hey! I think it was very courageous and encouraging for you guys to let the boys express themselves. Yours is a wonderful family because you both are wonderful parents! So often we as adults, when it comes to children, sadly think they have no opinions and keep them bottled up and frustrated --- Nevertheless, we coerce their participation and when they become adults and express their opinions about something we thought was absolutely correct during their childhood, we're surprised, dismayed, even hurt, by their opinion(s). Giving them the freedom and trust at an early age to be open about family matters, especially one as significant as moving to another country, is simply wonderful. And in the long run healthy for the entire family.

Oh dear. I shipped everything my kids used when we moved just because I knew the quality of toys and prices and for me it was to help them settle down. Something familiar for them. The kids around us had tons of toys so it worked out.

[@ExpatLifeGhana]

@Talu J - Totally understandable, we just didn't expect such of a price increase from the last time we were here. They seem to be adjusting better with the more trips we take out of the city. New places are a great way to peak interest and thanks for the comment 😊!

[@taluj2298]

That’s awesome and kids adjust quickly! Am sure they are enjoying the authentic experiences and interactions!

You can make your own stove top mac and cheese. It's very easy. I can send you the receipt.

Thank you for asking the Luke about being light-skinned in Ghana. My husband was wondering the same thing. I'm a brownie so I would blend right on in. My husband is light-skinned. He would definitely stick out! LOL!!!!
