Hope you are having a blessed morning!
Last week started off a bit rough. We enjoy the holidays but that sometimes messes up the little ones schedule and even their comfort level. But that didnt last very long. We had a special guest--Pushpa Narayan for a special bhajan! She mesmerized the children by her singing and acting capabilities. It was astounding to see how they were ALL singing along (word or two) with Pushpa and enjoying the bhajan. Here are the lyrics:
"Come o bulky stomach o Ganapathy
You are the son of Shiva - Parvathy
riding a rat O, bending a serpent O
you have the face of an elephant O
We offer you modaka payasa
you are steno of veda vyasa
please ensure us vigna vinasha
you are the guru of examination passa"

This was a REAL treat for our Pre-K class. We read a story about Ganesha "Boogie Woogie Ganesha" They were all engaged and thrilled listening to the story--not knowing what is going to happen next.
We had snack (animal crackers and juice) and then formed in a small group for a stretch of yoga. They really enjoyed the new aspect of that class. We will continue to introduce yoga for 10 mins whenever we can.
Again, please continue to recite the shlokas to your little ones and lets work as a team working towards the same goal.
Next class is Oct 12th!!!! See you then!!!!
