Diwali Celebrations at Athena Montessori Children’s Program

During the vibrant holiday of Diwali, children at the Athena Montessori Children’s Program in White Plains embark on a journey of cultural exploration. Our school is transformed into a lively environment of colors, lights, and celebrations, allowing our students to deeply engage with the beauty of Diwali, the festival of lights, and its rich cultural significance.

Our classrooms buzz with creative energy as children work on various art and craft projects. They use colored sand and paper to create beautiful Rangoli designs that symbolize happiness and good fortune. These activities enhance the children’s fine motor skills and provide a platform for them to express their creativity and engage deeply with the festival’s cultural significance, ensuring a rich educational experience.
