Hari Om Everyone,
We had a great time today in our class. Today we got our coloring books! How exciting! Some of the parents have bought the books already (it is $5). Those of you who haven't got it, please get them next week. Please bring exact change. Thank you so much!
We all started with our mantras and shlokas followed by meditation. It is amazing how still and silent these young kids are during this time. Our request to parents is that please come on time so your kids do not miss this important part of our agenda but if you are late please stand outside the class door and wait till we finish our meditation. We love it when all of us are silently doing Rama Nama Japa.
Today our story time was about how Rama. Lakshmana, Bharat and Shatughna were growing up in Ayodhya and how happy was King Dashratha surrounded by his sons. Also how King Dashratha allowed Rama to go with sage Vishvamitra and followed the command of his Guru, trusting it would be for his good.
Also we came to know about Tatka and how she was cursed to lead the ugly life of a demon.
We did some exercises and jumped up and down. We also learned the Bhajan "Khate bhi Rama kaho." It was so much fun. We all did actions along with the song and danced as well. We did not get a chance to finish the song. We will do so in our next class.
We finished with aarti and pledge. Please note that we might change our class room next week as we are not able to accommodate everybody in our room D112.. When you come for Balavihar next class we will post our new class number at the entrance.
Have a great week and we will see you all coming Sunday.
