Today we were invited to wear our brightest colours to kindy to celebrate "Holi - The Festival of Colours”. Holi is the most vibrant Indian festival, marking the beginning of spring and also celebrates fertility, colour, love and the triumph of good over evil.
Uxbridge turned into an array of colours with lots of brightly coloured provocations and invitations for us to enjoy. There was coloured dough, water, threading, sorting, dress up dolls, stickers and a super duper fun bowling alley....with paint!
Colours colours everywhere!!!!!!!
We were also very thankful and lucky to have some wonderful mums (Shruti and Mamta) who could come and join us celebrate this special event. We had a lesson in cooking Samosa's, some beautiful henna art and tattoo and a wonderful dance performance which we had a chance at learning and performing too.
What a rich fun filled day, sharing, learning and celebrating together.
Leyla said the samosas were "delicious"!
