It is so amazing how this three year old has captured so many hearts. I think it is wonderful that Kaia's dad is allowing the world to see his daughter's photos. I'm sure he never dreamed how far this would reach others. Click here to view Kaia's blog.
This all started when Kaia's father,Jabiz Raisdana, uploaded pictures that she had taken up onto her blog. Mr. Chamberlain's class started commenting on her blog, and her dad took notice of this. In response, her dad skyped the class. His class ended up making a voice thread for Kaia so that she could hear feedback about her pictures.
It's so cool how not only is the father teaching her to value the beauty in everything, but he is allowing her to connect with the rest of the world.
I do realize after reading his blog, Intrepid Teacher, that he has some concerns about sharing his daughter with the world. I can definitely see why he would be on the cautious side. Unfortunately, there are are some weirdos on the internet who are dangerous. Overall, I think that the pro's outweigh the con's. Yes, there are some dangers, but think of all the good that has come out of this experience.
What's really cool about this is that I have a friend who works in Qatar. The pictures that Kaia took described the place so much better than words could. I'm so glad that her father took a chance, and allowed us to see a glimpse of Kaia's life.
A friend in Qatar! Do you Skype with your friend? Have you forwarded your post and/or the link to Kaia's blog. That would be interesting!
