More photos from the Scavenger hunt held on Saturday, August 21st in Santa Monica, CA.

One hundred and ten au pairs attended the First Los Angeles Scavenger Hunt in Santa Monica, CA on Saturday, August 21st.  At the starting point, au pairs enjoyed muffins and juice to provide energy for the walk through Santa Monica’s Farmer’s Market, 3rd Street Promenade and then down to the Sant Monica Pier. 

The finish line was on the sand at the beach where prizes were awarded to the top 5 teams.

What a great evening we had in June on the longest day of the year.  Great Swedish food that included pickled herring and American BBQ.

A contest for the most creative, beautiful and whimsical garland took place while the au pairs were enjoying

desserts.

The weather was perfect, the horses were mellow and the au pairs were ready for a relaxing trail ride through the Hollywood Hills.  We were very excited to be able to view the Hollywood Sign!  Enjoy these photos from our July au pair meeting.

The longest day of the year!  The start of Summer.  What could be more fun.  Our group celebrated the Swedish Summer Solstice by eating traditional food such as pickled herrings, flat bread with butter and plenty of strawberries & vanilla ice cream.  American food included salads, hot dogs and pie.  German food was a wilted cucumber salad in white sauce.

The highlight of the evening was judging the floral garlands.  The contest with prizes consisted of “Most Beautiful”, “Most Creative” and “Most Whimsical”.  The judges were 10, 12 and 13 year old girls.  Simon Cowell could not be present for this talent contest of creating a hair wreath in honor of the Swedish Summer Solstice.

The Cultural Care au pair training school now has its own website.

I personally had the opportunity to experience this amazing school first hand, at the beautiful campus of St. John’s University in Oakdale, NY.

I was very impressed with the caliber of teachers, the amazing syllabus,and the enthusiasm our au pairs had about sharing their culture through songs, dance and art projects.
