Tipping with sweets (Kids of the cleaning ladys)

Post by nich »

Hello

Going to stay for 3 weeks at my favorite resort and the cleaning ladys always take their kids with them when they clean the room.

As for sure you put a tip for the cleaning for the ladys but I would like to give something to the Kids once a week, but no money.

Is it seen rude or strange to do that?

What kind of treats the kids would like, in other countrys even the normal cleaners appreciate Haribo or chocolate with a big smile.


What about khmer?

Leave money for the lady. Leave the kids alone. Don’t give the kids anything.
