It has been apart of their lives since they were born, grandparents from both sides would have it no other way which I think is great. My kids have a great mix of both their most recent heritages - Aussie and Samoan. I say to my daughter she is an Aussie, my husband says no you are a Samoan Aussie, I say an Aussie with Samoan heritage.. she gets it..we are proud of all our heritages.

I think it is important from beginning as it not only teaches our kids where their heritage's are but to educate them on the multicultural society along the way - really my kids are Aussie,Samoan,Portugese, German, English, French, American Indian so they have alot to learn.

We never did. Its just something that is a part of their lives. My girl is almost 7 and seems to understand a little of her heritage. We call the kids mozzies so they know Dad was born in NZ and mum in Aus. I wish they knew more about the culture but hopefully we can get to NZ  for the real deal.
