Happy Divali!


Divali is a Hindu festival of lights that celebrates good conquering evil. This year Divali was on November 5th. We read about Divali this past week and made some rangoli which are patterns made from brightly coloured powders. The children chose the pattern on paper that they liked best and put dots of glue on it, then sprinkled coloured sand over. They repeated this to add different colours. Their rangolis turned out very well! They can be hung up to bring a good new year and to welcome guests to your house. The children will be bringing their art home soon.
