In the third class at the Blijberg School we visited the Indians of North America. The Indians have a profound respect for Nature and sometimes they do rituals to celebrate it.
We discuss the meaning of rituals and we found a lot of example on our daily life.
Some kids found out that they also have their own rituals, like before going to bed or when they wake up.

The Indians believe that Nature is not only powerful but that she also has power to influence us, like when the Moon is full or when it rains. And because of that they do rituals to celebrate them.
Together the kids did ‘The Full Moon’ ritual around the campfire.
They danced and they throw on the fire everything that they didn’t wanted anymore and they renovated themselves.

They also painted each other’s faces and it was just like a ‘face massage’.
The yoga poses were all about warriors, arch and arrow and the animals that live in the desert together with the Indians.
In the end the kids did a beautiful relaxation where they had to imagine themselves in a real ‘indian camp fire’.
There, an old Indian came to say to each one of them:
You are good just as you are!
