Festivals are a great time to bond with kids as a family. It is equally important to teach our kids the real essence of the festivals. If you are looking some fun & educational activities to do with your child this Diwali, here are a bunch of Montessori inspired ideas!
Diwali, the festival of lights, the biggest festival of Hindus in India, it does not need any more explanation. We all enjoy the lights, diyas, food, sweets, new clothes, crackers, rangolis, Laxmi pooja and everything about Diwali.
This is my son’s second Diwali & he is 20 months old right now. Last year, he was too small for any kind of themed activities as such. So this year, I was so excited to set up the Montessori shelf for him. He keeps coming back to the shelf & asks for “ativity’, his version of saying activities!
The activities that I have designed, weave the cultures & traditions of the five days of Diwali festival, along with the Montessori principles & key areas of skill development.
And yayyy, I have finally set up Diwali theme shelf for my toddler. Have a look & do share what all activities you did with your child!
Check out the video, I am sure you can pick up some activity ideas for your child as well. Let the kids soak in the Diwali spirit!
My activities were featured on BabyChakra as well. Click HERE if you prefer to read & see pictures instead of the video.
A very Happy Diwali & a prosperous new year to all of you :)
