PROCEDURE:🔗

Get the children to act out a short play of lotus flowers blossoming. Some children can be the flower, the arms can be petals that are held tightly to the body to start. The flowers can rise slowly, some children can be the impatient ones who tug at the petals. If a petal opens too soon let the children hold their arm all crooked or limp. One child represents the sun. When the sun-child arrives and gently touches a budding flower, the flower-child stands up straight and opens the arms like a flower.
