“We have to continue to grow as parents and understand that our kids’ lives are not just about us,” these are Dwyane Wade’s words on parenting. And to no surprise, he is a loved dad too. After the ‘Zaya’ wave of media attention, there’s a shift, and guess who? Kaavia James! But what did she do? During National Girl Scout Cookie Weekend, Kaavia took on the challenge of selling cookies—her way. With some guidance from her parents, Dwyane Wade and Gabrielle Union, she embraced the role of a young entrepreneur, even if her tactics were a little unconventional. What is the fuss about? Also, who has pledged support to the already blessed kid?
The Girl Scout Cookie program teaches young girls valuable skills like entrepreneurship and money management. Naturally, Kaavia joined in with enthusiasm and was running her cookie stand like a seasoned pro. But in true Kaavia fashion, she wasn’t just about business—her playful antics stole the show. From taking an early lunch break to making sure even her parents had to pay for their cookies, she showed that she meant business. Several hilarious clips and pictures of her have been surfacing ever since the recent National Girl Scout Cookie Weekend, but one that stole the limelight is the support from Rocsi Diaz, the Emmy-winning host.
Rocsi Diaz has shared her interaction with Kaavia James while the latter was working hard on her business. Diaz stopped by to support Kaavia’s venture. And how did she extend her support? She shared a picture with the young entrepreneur at the cookie stand, where the six-year-old confidently handed over boxes of cookies. In her Instagram story, Diaz encouraged fans to support the young Girl Scout troop. Diaz urged her fans in her message, writing in the caption, “Tis the season support my lil homie @kaaviajames and her Troop Girl Scout Cookies Shop Here.” But it was not just her who enjoyed the show.
