Spring and Summer Festivals
Paperback
(Scholastic Ltd Oct. 6, 2004)
Festivals are used by all early years groups as a means of introducing different cultures and experiences to young children. This book takes the most popular spring and summer festivals and provides activities and linking photocopiable action rhymes, poems, stories and songs. The main festivals covered are Eil-ul-Fitr (Islam), Holi (Hindu), Easter (Christian), Baisakhi (Sikh) and Passover (Jewish), with other special days such as April Fool's Day and May Day forming a final chapter. There are eight photocopiable activity sheets linking up to the main activities, plus one chapter of ideas for display and another for assemblies. A topic web links the activities to preparing for both the National Curriculum and the Scottish 5-14 National Guidelines.
