Matthew (10) and Manzi (8) are brothers who came to Maine in August of 2019. Prior to that they lived in Denmark. The lively and delightful brothers are in 5th and 3rd grade, finishing out the school year from their homeschool via computer. I wanted to know what that was like for them.
Matthew loves everything basketball and enjoys drawing, almost as a meditation. He has shared the pictures he's drawn during quarantine, of people who inspire him. Manzi has a pretty cool invention that could really help with Covid. Their family manages to get outside regularly to combat cabin fever, and enjoy the fresh air. Their mother, Mariella, points out that the boys have become even closer to one another over this time of confinement.
The boys sing and dance with their mother and older brother and pray every day that Covid will go away soon.
This interview was pre-recorded over a Zoom call (aka Zoom Party) and edited afterwards.
Music: They sing for us: "Inanay" by Sing and Grow Australia and Alicia Keys sings "Underdog."
