Madonna also shared a photo of herself striking a playful pose for the camera while surrounded by local children.
The singer adopted her son David in 2006 when he was 13 months old. He was born in the village of Lipunga, which is located in Western Malawi. Mercy was adopted in 2007 when she was four and suffering from Malaria.
Her twins were adopted from Malawi at the start of 2017. They lived in the Home of Hope orphanage in Mchinji for two years before their adoption.
During her Celebration tour at London's O2 in October, Madonna professed that she was 'saved' by her children.
The star admitted it was an 'honour' for her to share the stage with her brood as she discussed the impact they have had on her life.
Speaking on stage, Madonna pointed out David's mother was amongst the faces projected onto the screens.
She said: 'It's such an honour for me to not only perform with my children every night on the stage but also pay tribute to his mother and hopefully everyone's mother. We all have motherly connections with one way or another...
'My children always say to me, "Thank you mom for giving us a better life", and I say to them, "No you, you saved me." '

The Music singer went on to urge fans to 'make a difference' in the world.
She said: 'In these dark and crazy times, we have to remember that even if our heart is breaking, they cannot break our souls.
'Each and every one of us have the opportunity to turn our light on, we are each a candle in the world, so take the opportunity to be a light in the world and you will make a difference.'
Along with her adopted children, Madonna is mother to Lourdes Leon, 27, with her ex Carlos Leon and Rocco Ritchie, 23, with her ex-husband Guy Ritchie.
