Bhagavad Geeta:
Comments:
- We did all our beginning prayers.
- We did both the Bhajans.
- We told the story of Harishchandra, the truthful king who gave up his entire kingdom and family just to keep a promise.
- We then played a game of Hot Potato and when Ganesha stopped at any person, they were asked a question from the earlier stories, or asked to recite a shloka or sing a Bhajan or dance!
- We practised the second Shloka from the Geeta several times. Please practise it with your children at home.
- We played the Ganeshah vadati (like Simon says) game for some time and then it was time for the ending prayers.
Reminders:
- Keep practising the Geeta at home.
- Please don't send in their bags or other toys to class.
