ART OF THE DAY -

CELEBRATION DRAWING

Explanation:

This is a fun activity to show the class the concept of unity. Unity connects and with love and unity, we can connect and share with the whole world.

Materials required:

Earbuds. Paint (different colours) Paper.

Presentation:

Talk about the meaning of unity. Unity is oneness, we are all part of this universe, and when we work as a team, with love and unity, we can be blissful.

Demonstrate how unity connects with a plain paper and a bud dipped in paint. Draw a shape of a heart using dots. Each of the dots represents each one of us. Then with a different colour, you can connect the dots creating a beautiful pattern. The connection of the dots represents the love in us. Love connects us in unity. It completes us.

Give each child a paper, and ask them to make a design with the concept of unity in mind (e.g. heart, circle, flower etc.)

Ask them to present their pictures and explain what it represents and they can write about it at the bottom of the page.

Conclusion:

Sometimes we forget that we are a part of this universe. When we remember that we are all one, we will be united.

ACTIVITY -

LOVE MEDITATION

Explanation:

This is a lovely activity to do in a group, a meditation that all can enjoy about love.

Material required:

Instrumental music (optional)

Presentation:

Gather the class and explain what we are about to do, ask them to close their eyes and picture themselves as love, pure liquid love overflowing to every part of their bodies.

When they have their eyes closed you can give them soft instructions while the music is playing quietly in the background. "Focus on your heart region. Exclude everything else. Focus only on the heart". "Visualize your heart as an endless reservoir from where blessings can flow". "Feel every heartbeat deeply. Let every beat resound throughout you". "Between the heartbeats, feel the energy of love happening". "In the deepest parts of your body, mind and soul, the love energy is waiting to be acknowledged." "Invite the love energy of the heart to flow and fill these deepest parts of your body, mind and soul".

Slowly tell them to open their eyes.

Discussion:

Continue with the discussion about how we can express love. Expand on this: 'When we become love our actions will speak love.' What kind of actions can we do to express our love? Practise expressing love by using words which will express love. For example: Discuss what kind of words we will use, what kind of voice.

Conclusion:

This meditation helps them to focus and even become love; they should carry this with them. The more effort they put into this meditation, the more they get from it.
