Here are some ideas of Montessori inspired fun educational activities & crafts for India's independence day for kids. Also mentioned are India themed books for kids that you can read aloud.
I am following Montessori & fun learning philosophy for my son who is 18 months old now. This independence day, I set up India theme activities for him. Here is a quick video of all the activities on his Montessori shelf.
Now this is another YouTube video showing how he enjoying doing these activities!
Do subscribe to my YouTube Channel! Printables in the activities are from Mumma Diaries.
Apart from these activities, we are listening to some patriotic songs like Ae Mere Watan Ke Logon, Saare Jahan Se Accha, Vande Matram, I Love My India, Sarfaroshi Ki Tamanna, Mera Rang De Basanti, Zindagi Maut Na Ban Jaaye etc. I have also put some India theme books on his bookshelf for this week. These books can be read to an older child as well. They are not just for young toddlers! Different age children have some different interpretation of the same book. So go on & add them to your personal library :)
I am sharing the links for these books if you want to buy them online.
