[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our elementary school is having a multicultural night. It's fun and we will definitely attend. A lot of the students are immigrants or first gen.

But... what do we tell DD about our "country of origin"? My background is at least 8 western European countries and DH covers most of Eastern Europe. We aren't even sure what country dh's last name comes from (my maiden name was generic English like Jones/Smith). DD is supposed to dress up and bring food. She keeps asking, but we don't have anything for her to dress up in or foods from our ancestors. My family actually has some fun history, but it's all American (one was a revolutionary war hero and another founded a town that's named after our family). Do we choose a random European country?

I'm sure I'm overthinking this. [/quote]

If kid wants, I would totally encourage the Revolutionary War dress-up.

My kid would love to bust out a tricorn or a puritan hat or something.  [/quote]
