At Wesak, we think of the Buddha
Who sat under the Bodhi tree
He taught everyone to be kind and good
And to live very happily!
We watched a video clip about a little girl and her family who were preparing for, and celebrating Wesak - and then we had a lovely story about the Elephant and a dog!
It was fun making a hand-print elephant on the front of our cards - we concentrated really hard to create a repeating colour pattern around the edge.
We worked together to create a mandala - Buddhists use these for meditation and in their art.
It was a bit tricky trying to paint the pasta to create our friendship bracelets to give to someone who we think is very kind - but they looked great when they were finished!
Happy Wesak everyone!
