Celebrating Festivals as a Family
EP5: In this episode, Jean shares the benefits for celebrating festivals, a simple structure for planning a festival, and three tips to keep in mind when bringing festivals to your family.
Whenever I ask my\xa0 3 now grown children to share their favorite memories from our homeschooling years, they always include something from our festival celebrations. Our lantern walks in the woods after dark, our winter solstice spiral, making candles at Candlemas, spring equinox plays, or our May Day festivals.\xa0
And it doesn\u2019t surprise me \u2013 because gathering to celebrate festivals strengthens bonds and builds togetherness with the turning of the seasons, creating powerful memories.
