The butterflies had lots of fun today learning about Diwali- the festival of light. The butterflies learned the story of Rama and Sita and explored a variety of activities such as: Exploring Rangoli patterns! The butterflies explored the different colours and shapes and then attempted to create their own using glue and glitter. The butterflies then had lots of fun designing our own Mehndi patterns! We used fine line felt pens to create our own intricate details to the hand templates. The children showed excellent control of their pens and their fine motor skills development. They then created their own Diya lamps. The butterflies were super careful using a hot glue gun to glue tealights onto CDs. We then used a variety of sparkly shape stickers to make them so colourful!
