A party for Eid

  In October, we held a party for Eid-Al-Adha.  

Both R…..and R….. joined us for our celebrations.  We learned that although people may have different beliefs, that they hold  festivals not dissimilar to our own (all cultures).  During Eid Muslims of the world dress up; enjoy parties; dance; have fireworks etc.

R……showed us her very special tunic.  It had bells all around.  We learned that boys wear their scarves from back to front and girls from front to back.  We enjoyed bell dances and sampled different foods from around the world.

We made a “space” mobile with moons and stars decorated with different patterns; we learned to say “hello” in Arabic; and learned about other people in the world

Many thanks R……… for joining us, and sharing your special festival with us.


Have you a special event; a skill; an interest or job,  that you would like to share with us – 

Please talk to Michele/Dawn
