Ok to be Different- Children's Program

For this month's Children's Program (6/13/2020), we explored the theme of differences and similarities. We first shared things we had observed in the natural world that were different from when we last met, such as hatched baby robin chicks, growing sunflowers, yellow butterflies, and giant snapping turtles. We then read and acted out the book It's Okay to be Different by Todd Parr. We explored how we all are different from each other in some ways, and yet we all have things in common, such as having feelings, wanting to be happy, and not wanting to suffer. We then listened to the big bell and closed with a group Om.
