Today we . . .

focused on the word "unity."  Mandala is a symbol for unity - bringing together.  

participated in an activity to work together - helping each other go through the hula hoop without letting the hands go.  

created and designed a mandala using various gems, rocks, and seashells with friends in silence.

relaxed on a mandala blanket to continue to unite in silence.  

practiced a new breathing technique called the "bumble bee breath" - helps calm the mind.   

and acknowledged our gratitude - "Namaste"!
