Young children need an awareness of other cultures and beliefs
ReplyDeleteMake a list of some of the major religious
festivals during the year.
As they approach make a card with your child
to celebrate the festival. It could be Christmas,
Eid or the Festival of Lights. Try to pick a
festival that is not part of your culture.
Read a story from a different faith or culture.
If possible try and take part in a selection of
different cultural festivals or special events
in your neighbourhood.
Try making some different foods from other
cultures. Get your child to help with the recipes.
