“She was like a dream for me. I have learnt from her that education is important in life”. That was how 13-year-old Johny David summed up his experience of dancing with US First Lady Michelle Obama and playing drums at a function here today.

It was a great experience for 30 children to dance with Michelle Obama and listen to her advice on education.

About 30 children danced with the and played hopscotch with the First Lady. She spelt words like Washington DC and happiness and answered questions like Father of India, capital of US which were asked by the children to complete the hopscotch game.
