Comments: It was nice to see all the kids after the long break! They all seem to have grown a bit taller! it was a cold morning. We warmed up with Yoga. Then we chanted our Stotras. Our new Stotra for this month is Buddhir Balam. We also learnt the 3rd verse in Gita chanting. Then it was time for Bhajans. After Bhajans, we chanted Brahmaarpanam and then had the yummy snack that Atharva brought for the class. We reviewed our counting and colors. Our new colors are DhoomalaH(Purple), PaatalaH (Pink), and NaarangaH (Orange). Then we listened to the story about the elephant and the dog who were really good friends. It does not matter how big or small we are. Anyone can be anyone's friend. After story time we made pretty friendship bands. Then we played a fun new game called shirah skandau (head shoulders knees and toes). after that it was time to do our Aarati and ending Stotras. We will meet next Sunday for yet another fun Balavihar class.
