Green Festivals for Little Learners: Introducing Preschoolers to Eco-Friendly Celebration Practices

Engaging children in festive activities holds great significance in Indian households as it is one of the ways by which children can be introduced to the rich cultural heritage of the country. Plus, it is also that joyful time of the year when the whole family comes together to create beautiful memories. This is a great opportunity for the elders to teach children about the traditions, rituals, myths and legends associated with the festival. In today’s world, there is one more thing that kids need to be aware of- the protection of our mother earth. This year, while discussing the significance of festivals, ensure that they are taught to celebrate without harming nature. 

From introducing sustainable craft ideas for kids and avoiding firecrackers to creating all-natural rangoli and giving eco-friendly presents, here are a few ways to teach kids about eco-friendly practices during the time of festivals. 

 

Curb the Use of Plastic 

Instead of purchasing ready-made lanterns from the shops, try making diy lanterns at home. Show kids how to build lanterns using recycled paper. Provide them with watercolours, painting brushes, glue and child-safe scissors, and make sure to be a part of this fun activity. Or you can provide children with small and safe clay diyas, and let them colour. You can explain the significance of the festival and the role of lanterns/diyas in the festivities while engaging in this fun little activity with children. These nature-themed festival activities will not only benefit the environment but also provide you with the opportunity to spend some quality time with children while celebrating a green festival. Additionally, educate your children about the need to swap the plastic décor and flowers with eco-friendly alternatives. 

 

Say ‘No’ to Crackers 

Despite knowing the fact that setting off fireworks causes air and noise pollution, most people continue the tradition of bursting crackers during almost every festival. Understanding the responsibility towards nature, a few people have resorted to green crackers that produce comparatively less smoke and noise. However, we believe one of the best practices to celebrate green festivals for preschoolers is to avoid using firecrackers altogether. Festivals are a great time to teach children to let go of certain traditions that pose a threat to the environment and other creatures on Earth.

 

Create Natural Rangoli

Back in the day, ‘rangoli’ was originally used to share food with birds and insects- a symbol of sharing lives with fellow creatures of the planet. Even in the present day, ‘rangoli’ or ‘kolam’ in southern India is made using dry rice flour and still serves its original purpose of feeding tiny birds and insects. So, this festive season, keep the spirit of eco-friendly festivals alive by adding natural colours to create your rangoli. Teach children how to replace artificially manufactured colours with natural colours by adding turmeric, kumkum powder and coffee powder to your rangoli. Or you can add flowers and leaves to make the rangoli look more cheerful. In the southern Indian state of Kerala, there is a tradition of making flower rangoli during the festival of ‘Onam’. Since flowers decompose naturally, they will not harm nature. As opposed to chemical colours, these ecological options will not cause any allergies or skin sensitivity and thus, are safe for children to use. Discuss the cultural significance of rangoli with your children and create colourful memories. 

 

Eco-Friendly Presents 

Festive occasions bring excitement to every household, with both the young and old eagerly looking forward to the joy of giving and receiving presents. Unfortunately, these cherished gifts are often wrapped in single-use plastics, contributing to unnecessary waste. This year, lead by example and show your kids how to present gifts in environment-friendly alternatives such as jute bags. Handmade greeting cards are another fun activity to keep your children busy during the festive season. These cards add a unique personal touch to the gifts. You can also encourage children to give ecologically sound gifts such as plants. While giving tulsi or hibiscus plants will make the houses of loved ones a little greener, they also add a classic touch to spaces in the house. 

These are some of the eco-friendly celebration tips that you can introduce to your little ones. Focus on limiting the usage of plastics and switching to biodegradable or environmentally safe products. Encourage your children to embrace recycling and renewability as the new guiding principle to celebrate festivals. It’s essential for them to recognize that even the smallest efforts from your side can significantly benefit the well-being of Mother Earth, all while enjoying the festivities.
