We have continued studying Vedantic Alphabets and this month we covered vedantic letters M,N,O,R and S. We did skip P and Q. Also, learnt new Sri Rama Slokam as follows .
Sri Rama Slokam
Apadam apahartaram Dataram Sarva Sampadam|
Lokabhiramam Sriramam Bhuyo Bhuyo Namamyaham||
M is for Mother
Mother cares,nurtures and protect us. We express love to Mother by giving her a hug, telling her we love her, helping her, respecting her and listening to her. We also worship Mother Earth, Mother India, Mother Nature and many more as mother.
Tale: Mommy's Love(Panda Chinku's love for his mother)
I love you ,Mom (Rudra learned a lesson that when you love,you don't demand anything in return)
N is for Nobility
Nobility is upholding high moral standards and having strong character. We can be noble by taking care of others and putting others first.
Tale: The Noble Cow( Being truthful has its rewards) and The other shoe (Mahatma Gandhi's noble act)
O is for Obedience
Obedience is dutifully doing what one is told to do without protesting. Obedience helps to achieve harmony and brings discipline. Parents and teachers know what is best for us,so listen to them.
Tale: The obedient child( Vikram's obedient saves him from trouble.)
Game: We played a game "Teacher says" just like Simon says...and they had lot of fun.
Why did we skip P and Q?
According to English alphabet P comes after O. In Vedantic alphabet,R comes after O because we need to learn all the values of the alphabet except P and Q. After we learn all the values,we become fit to do prayers and learn the letter P which stands for Prayer. When we offer prayers to Lord,we become Quiet and learn the alphabet Q.
R is for Right
The right thing is, to do what is morally good, just and correct. If we do the right thing in life,it will bring us good rewards and happiness. Always do what is right ,no matter what everyone else says or does. We asked some questions about what right things to do in school,public places.
Tale: The rock on the road(Do the right thing,even if nobody else is doing it. Doing the right thing always brings good rewards and happiness in the end)
S is for Smile
A smile is a facial expression of joy and pleasure. We smile because it makes us feel happy, helps us make friends and makes people want to talk to us. Happy and funny things make us smile. We like our friends smiling and not crying.
Tale: The million dollar smile(Make other happy and you will get it back in different good ways)
Game: I Love to Smile. - We asked one kid not to smile while asking others to make her smile. It was not easy to be without smiling . We all love to smile, when we smile, we feel better. We feel good when we make others smile. Every kid did their best not to smile, within few seconds their friends smile made them smile.
Annual Day
Kids are excited and are really working hard to give their best for the annual day. For the annual day the costume will be simple white t-shirt and black leggings or pants with Red dupatta that would be tied around their waist. We are collecting the dupattas ahead of time, so it would be great if you can label them and send them with your kid.
Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions.
With love,
