Our country's diversity ensures that we celebrate many festivals, each with its own distinct charm, rituals and traditions. And children love festivals, anticipating each occasion and holiday - with great joy and enthusiasm. Festivals are a great way to teach children about our culture and traditions, and they afford us the opportunity to teach our children a variety of skills as well.
We get experts to tell you the types of skills you could help them develop during such festivities...
INCULCATING HELPFULNESS
The festival season is a time of camaraderie, family bonding, entertainment, enjoyment and cultural pride. Children get to spend the day with family members who are preparing for the festival, and must be encouraged to help according to their age and ability. This fosters closeness and familial feelings.
