The Joy of Mandala.

It's November! We are going to learn about Mandala!
 Yes, you heard me right, mandala.
It's for the kids to learn something about
inner peace and shapes and symmetry.
According to Wikipedia, In common use, mandala has become
a generic term for any plan, chart or geometric pattern
that represents the cosmos metaphysically or
symbolically; a microcosm of the universe.
 
Here we have the kids drawing circles and shapes,
I want them to choose their own colour and draw them carefully
and use the shapes that they like.
After drawing all the shapes they have to paint the whole picture.
This does shows the character of the child and what they prefer and
how patience they are too.

Next the children did a Family Mandala.
They get to think about what each family member like
and prefer. What colour that they
choose for their individual member in the family.
It's interesting to see how they
think and draw things that represent each family member.

Finally, We are making it big!
The children get to cooperate and create a big mandala
using recycle items. Each of the kids get to carefully place
the individual items carefully around in a circle.
I am quite amaze that they already know the concept of mandala;
before I explain, they already know what to do!

Lastly, they are proud of their creation!
It was fun and interesting for them to
play this big mandala game!
 
Thank you all for that participate, we all had fun!
