We started the class with Lord Ganesha's prayer Vakratunda ( pg 37 my
prayers book) and Godess Saraswathi's prayer Saraswathi namastubhyam (
pg 15 my prayers book). Following this we introduced ourselves as I was
new to kids.
We revised the story behind Hanuman's birth. Who is
Hanuman? Why was he born? What are the qualities of Hanuman and why are
we studying Hanuman? After revision we continued Hanuman's story with
his childhood anecdotes like the one where he tries to grabs the sun
thinking it is a red fruit.We also learnt how Maruti got the name
Hanuman and how he got various boons from the Devatas.I was impressed
that the children knew most of the things and how they related some
aspects of the story to their everyday life. For craft the kids colored a
picture of Hanuman flying to get the Sanjeevani mountain.The kids also
tried to draw Hanuman's family tree.We had some funny moments when the
kids tried to discuss about their family tree.We ended the class with
Dhyaana shloka Om Sahanvavatu (pg 9 my prayers book).
