little lantern in the night
fill our hearts with your warm light
guide us in the way to be
happy, good, strong and free
tomorrow is the winter solstice. the shortest day and the longest night. tonight we'll rug up and gather with our school community. build a fire, take a lantern walk, sing some songs and share some food.
we made these simple lanterns for the celebration. glass jars, wire, tissue paper and glue.

ReplyDeleteLove the idea of celebrating the winter solstice this way :)
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! I love the way you celebrate the winter solstice. It gets eclipsed by Christmas for us in the Northern hemisphere so it's really nice to see how you celebrate it. x
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful tradition your school community has. Love the lanterns x
