Learning Ladder Wyndham recently celebrated the Chinese Lantern Festival, a significant event in Chinese New Year. The children had the opportunity to design and create their own lanterns, which helped them learn about symmetry, patterns, and the importance of light in various global traditions.
This festival promotes love, friendship, and forgiveness, and encourages looking forward to the new year with hope. Through the lantern-making activity, children developed fine motor skills, including cutting, gluing, and manipulating materials.
They also enhanced their creativity, improved hand-eye coordination, and explored the cultural meaning of lanterns. This activity provided a fun, educational experience, combining art, tradition, and cultural awareness.
