Loi Krathong Festival, Thailand


At this festival people put lotus flower shaped boats with lights, incense, flowers and coins in the river, sending away the bad luck and giving thanks for water. We will make a paper lotus flower tomorrow and put a wish in the middle of it. Then we will see if it floats at our water table. We will also do a little experimenting to see what else floats and sinks. Since the flowers will be delicate we will decorate the class with them and wait until your visit before sending them home.
