• Prayer Flags

  [caption id="attachment_379" align="aligncenter" width="300" caption="Prayer Flags"][/caption]Ever wonder what the true meaning is behind a prayer flag? Well, I've got your answer."Prayer flags are not just pretty pieces of colored cloth with funny writing on them. The ancient Buddhist prayers, mantras and powerful symbols displayed on them produce a spiritual vibration that is activated and carried by the wind across the countryside. All beings that are touched by the wind are uplifted and a little happier. The silent prayers are blessings spoken on the breath of nature. Just as a drop of water can permeate the ocean, prayers dissolved in the wind extend to fill all of space". www.prayerflags.comSounds complicated but the truth is this cultural tradition is all about giving love and peace. Hailed from Tibet, prayer flags are a symbol of universal peace and global harmony. Around the World begs the question - how do we teach and pass on this cultural practice to our children?  We think one way is to teach children the gift of GIVING. Check out the World Bank cards in the Around the World boardgame, www.aroundtheworldgames.com, and your children will begin to learn that in order to get ahead in the game (ahem, world!)  you've got to give.
