Welcome to the Keiki Korner of the Wakinikona Hawaiian Club. One of the missions of our club charter is to perpetuate the Hawaiian Culture and in many ways we do that through the teaching of our Keikis (children). Explore the pages in this section of our website to learn more about your Hawaiian heritage, our unique language and the islands we call Home.
