WHY FESTIVALS ARE IMPORTANT FOR KIDS
1. Understanding other cultures and heritage:
One great way to teach kids about their cultural background is to take them to festivals. At Kids Kingdom Preschool, we think it’s important for kids to know where they come from in order to feel proud of their culture and identity.
2. Values and bonds with others:
At our childcare, we stress the value of friendship and community. Family bonds can be strengthened, ideals like empathy and compassion can be taught, and a sense of community can be built at festivals.
3. Growth in emotions:
When kids go to festivals, they can feel a lot of different feelings, which makes them more emotionally aware and strong. These feelings and events are very important to their growth and development.
Why festivals are good for kids
Let us now talk about the specific benefits of events for kids, like those at Kids Kingdom Preschool:
1. Teaching through happiness:
The holiday parties at our preschool are a fun and interesting way to teach kids about history, mythology, and cultural practices. For example, Dussehra celebrates the win of good over evil, and we use this time to teach important lessons about life.
2. Being creative and imaginative:
Children’s creativity and imagination are sparked by festival activities. we love these chances for our little students to show off their artistic skills. There are a lot of things that can be done, from making diyas for Diwali to making Ravana statues for Dussehra.
How to Have Fun at Holidays with Kids
1. Things to do with kids during Dussehra:
You can plan special events for Dussehra, like watching a kid-friendly play or movie based on the Ramayana. We give kids a safe place to work together to make Ravana effigies out of recycled materials, and we also have a “Ravana Dahan” there.
– At our preschool, we tell the epic story of Lord Rama’s bravery and knowledge every time we have a story time.
2. Crafts for kids to do for Dussehra:
– Our preschool has many craft activities, like making Ravana masks out of paper mache and colored dandiya sticks for Garba dance.
3. Things for kids to do during Diwali:
– Our experienced teachers will show you how to make beautiful Rangoli designs to decorate your home.
– As part of Diwali, our little students get to help light diyas and candles, which makes our preschool feel magical.
– You can also plan trips to local Diwali fairs and art shows so that kids can fully experience the culture.
4. Diwali arts and crafts for kids:
– As part of our lessons, we make individual Diwali greeting cards. Using bright beads and threads, our young artists make “Toran,” or door hangings that add a creative touch to our preschool.
Lessons for toddlers and preschoolers about Dussehra and Diwali
For toddlers, our preschool makes sure that holiday celebrations are safe and proper for their age:
During Dussehra and Diwali, we focus on things that we can see and touch, like watching the Ravana figure burn or playing with diyas that are safe for kids. Preschoolers at our school do simple crafts and listen to stories that are appropriate for their age and level of growth.
