December 11, 2020 Husking coconuts
We went to our home island for the holidays and had to be quarantined because of COVID-19. Being stuck at home in quarantine was boring until we found a coconut husker, which we used on a lot of coconuts. Husking coconuts was a fun way to pass the time for my younger brother and me. We husked all the coconuts by the time the quarantine was over.

December 23, 2020 Planting coconuts
We saw sprouts on coconuts when we went to our sister's house. Our grandfather saw my younger brother and me handling the coconuts that had sprouts, gave us a hoe, and told us to plant them. We dug a big hole with the hoe and planted the coconuts. That was the first time for me to use a hoe, and I hurt my leg, but I learned something new.

December 30, 2020 Helping in the garden
We help our grandfather with the work in his garden whenever we go to his island. We help him by watering the garden and pulling weeds. Our grandfather is always happy when we come help with the garden work. He has planted chili, watermelon, and pumpkin in the garden. When we are in the capital city of Male, our grandfather sends us food from his garden. Thank you, Grandpa!

January 6, 2021 Climbing trees
I like climbing trees at different places. So every time we go to our home island, I play at Funa Hiya Park. We climb the big trees there and play in the treetops. Lots of swings hang from the tree limbs, and we play in them, too. The park also has bars that we can hang from and spin on. This is my favorite place to go on the island.

January 9, 2021 Going fishing
This was my first fishing trip. We went to a beautiful uninhabited island nearby. We caught a lot of fish there. My father and brother also came on the trip. I learned a lot of new things on the trip. It was a really fun trip.
