Patience Reflection - what happened in class?

Today the kids actually started by playing a game of Ruk Shuk, a building game with rocks that takes patience to play. Then we went into our story...

Story: We told the story of 'Abdu'l-Baha's 23-year patience with a man who hated him. It was a beautiful story to hear, how 'Abdu'l-Baha bought food for the man and paid for a doctor. The kids totally got that 'Abdu'l-Baha was patient for those 23 years.


Music: We put two rhythm cards together and played complex rhythms, individually and as a group on various instruments.

Craft: We did beading, because that takes PATIENCE!!
