DIWALI

Diwali is a celebration of lights and colors. Diwali is a time to reconnect with people who mean the world to us.

 Deepavali is a festival where people from all age groups participate. They give expression to their happiness by lighting earthen 'diyas' (lamps), decorating the houses, bursting firecrackers and inviting near and dear ones to their households for partaking in a sumptuous feast. The lighting of lamps is a way of paying obeisance to god for attainment of health, wealth, knowledge, peace, valor and fame.

 On Diwali night, little clay lamps are lit in Hindus homes, but now a days colored electric lamps are also used. What is the significance of lighting a lamp? There is a logical answer to this question. It is through the light that the beauty of this world is revealed or experienced. Most civilizations of the world recognize the importance of light as a gift of God. It has always been a symbol of whatever is positive in our world of experience.

GANESH CHATURTHI

Happy Eid- ul-Fiter and Vinayka Chavithi for all of you.

 

The festival begins with the installation of huge elaborately crafted statutes of Ganesha in homes and podiums, which have been especially constructed and beautifully decorated. Artisans put months of effort into making the statues. It's forbidden to look at the moon on this first night as legend had it the moon laughed at Lord Ganesha when he fell from his vehicle, the rat. On Ananta Chaturdasi (the last day), the statues are paraded through the streets, accompanied by much singing and dancing, and then immersed in the ocean or other bodies of water. In Mumbai alone, more than 150,000 statues are immersed each year!

The main sweet dish during the festival is the modak (modagam or modakam in South India). A modak is a dumpling made from rice flour/wheat flour with a stuffing of fresh or dry-grated coconut, jaggery, dry fruits and some other condiments. It is either steam-cooked or fried. Another popular sweet dish is the karanji (karjikaiin Kannada) which is similar to the modak in composition and taste but has a semicircular shape.



The festivals are celebrated in school to inculcate the basic religious culture in them . To inform them why the festivals are celebrated. We made all the children to stand and fold their hands to do namaskar in front of the 'Mandir'. after installing the 'Ganesh' idol.

They saw a beautiful movie of  ganesha called 'My Friend Ganesha'.

WISH ALL THE PARENT'S A VERY HAPPY GANESH CHATURTHI.

KRISHNA IN KIDZEE CAMPUS,KIDZEE-Bal Ladakpan, Trimulgherry.

Today is krishnaashtami-the festival marking the advent of the birth of lord.

Also referred as janmashtami, Krishna Ashtami is one of the widely followed festivals of Andhra Pradesh. Celebrated between the month of august and September, Krishna Ashtami marks the appearance of Lord Krishna on earth. The devotees maintain a fast on the night of the festival and sing religious hymns. Janmashtami is a festival celebrated with lot of enthusiasm and joy. It creates a euphoric atmosphere all around. Since Lord Krishna was very fond 

of milk and milk products, so devotees make various dishes of milk to please the Lord.                                                   

At Kidzee, we try to inculcate the culture of our tradition At Kidzee we made a cradle inside the school, where the statue of Lord Krishna was put in this cradle and our little children made it swing back and forth. The process symbolizes the utmost devotion and love of the followers for Shri Krishna. The tradition of dressing the kids of the place with Krishna's apparel and accessories  made the festival celebration very good. 

Dahi Handi or pot breaking  is a popular ceremony, celebrated with lot of enthusiasm and glee. Dahi Handi is an enactment of Lord Krishna's efforts to steal butter from Matka (earthen pot) suspended from the ceiling. Dahi Handi generally takes place on the second day of Janmashtami. An earthen pot containing a mixture of milk, dry fruits, ghee is hung around 20-30 feet high in the air with the help of a rope. Silver coins are hung along with the rope,which are later distributed as prize to the winners. Enthusiastic young men, form a human pyramid by standing one on top of the other, trying to break the pot. Onlookers throw water on the young men in order to prevent them from breaking the pot. 

At Kidzee we celebrating the pot breaking ceremony by putting chocolates in the pot for the children.

Krishna is so adorable and beautiful-I like his cool, rebellious nature (oops ..Did I use ‘cool’ to describe a god?-another modification to suit the age ) But I like the commitment of avatar Rama (inherently, both Krishna and Rama are two forms of Vishnu who took these incarnations at different yugas or times). So, according to me, the perfect male will be the one who is a steady mix of Krishna in outwardly nature and Rama in inwardly thoughts such a mix will not be encompassed by any one.

RAKSHA BANDHAN

 Relationships are the essence of any festivity and it holds true for any Indian festival. Each occasion brings the family together which calls for a celebration. Raksha Bandhan is a celebration of one such relation - that of a brother and a sister. This relationship is no where so celebrated as in India. Raksha Bandhan is a festival which celebrates the bond of affection between brothers and sisters. It is a day when siblings pray for each others' well being and wish for each others' happiness and goodwill.




The name 'Raksha Bandhan' suggests 'a bond of protection'.

 Rakhi is basically a sacred thread of protection embellished with the love and affection of a sister for her brother. This day is also known as Raksha Bandhan and celebrated on the full moon day of the Hindu month of Shravana in India. This frail of thread of Rakhi is considered as stronger than iron chains as it binds the most beautiful relationship in an inseparable bond of love and trust. Rakhi festival also has a social significance because it underlines the notion that everybody should live in harmonious    coexistence with each other.

Independence day

"At the stroke of the midnight hour, when the world sleeps, India will awake to life and freedom. A moment comes, which comes but rarely in history, when we step out from the old to the new…India discovers herself again." 

 The day is celebrated to commemorate the birth of the world's biggest democracy as a national holiday. Schools and people hoist the national flag through out the country and put them up on the rooftops and the buildings. People only go to offices to attend the flag hoisting ceremony.

  The Prime Minister addresses the Nation after the flag has been unfurled recounting the country's achievements of the year, discussing current major issues and future plans for the progress of the country. Recently, kite-flying has become a tradition on this day and people can be seen flying numerous kites of all colors, sizes and shapes symbolizing the freedom.

  Flag-hoisting ceremonies are executed all over India by state governments. However, the chief event is conducted in the capital city of India, New Delhi where the Prime Minister of India unfurls the tricolor at the barricades of Red Fort which receives a salutation of 21 guns, and addresses the nation with his speech.

 At KIDZEE we initiated independence day with Flag Hoisting and gradually conducted the fancy dress party. All the children came in the attire of the patriotic leaders giving salute to them on their bravery.

WE SALUTE OUR BRAVE SOLDIERS WHO FOUGHT AT THE BORDERS FOR THE OUR SAFETY AND FOR THE SAFETY OF THE NATION
