Celebrating Paganism with Children!
Many children today learn about caring for the Earth at home and in
school. The idea of saving the Earth is all around them in the media. In
addition to those sentiments, contemporary Pagans also teach
their children to celebrate the sacredness of the Earth.
Play as a Way to the Sacred
Play offers many ways to engage children in the sacred. Through play,
learning is fun. Pagan and other Earth-centered religious traditions honor
the playfulness and joy of the human experience as sacred.
Children love to make music and it can give them a sense of the Divine
creator in themselves. Learning to use rhythm instruments can foster that
joy. Making rattles and other musical instruments can be fun projects for
the whole family. The instruments can be used in worship as well as
informal play. Chants are also common in worship and they are easy to
learn. Sing with children anytime. |
