Children love learning about festivals and the way other people celebrate them. It’s also fascinating for them to compare how they celebrate the same festival in their own country. Easter is widely celebrated by children across the world and it is interesting from a cross-cultural point of view to develop at least a few activities related to eggs, bunnies and hot cross buns! Don’t forget that Easter is a religious festival and so you can evoke the origins of the symbols of Easter without having to go into too much detail for the younger children.
OUR MAIN AIM IS TO ENCOURAGE CROSS-CULTURAL AWARENESS.
