✏️ What your child will do
Part A shows how to draw a diya in four steps – a bowl, an oval top, a flame and some decoration. In Part B your child traces a big dotted diya and colours it, and in Part C they draw and colour a diya on their own.
🎯 What your child will learn
- Drawing with simple shapes – half circle, oval and drop
- Following drawing steps in order
- Tracing dotted lines with pencil control
- Colouring neatly inside the lines
- Talking about Guru Nanak Jayanti (Gurpurab)
👣 How to do it
- Look at Steps 1 to 4 and name each shape: half circle, oval, drop.
- Trace the big dotted diya in Part B – flame, top, bowl, then the zigzag and the dots.
- Colour the traced diya like Step 4.
- Draw your own diya in the empty box in Part C and colour it.
💡 Tips for parents
- Point to the red part in each step – that is the new line to draw. Let your child draw it in the air with a finger first.
- Use a pencil for tracing and drawing, and crayons for colouring – orange for the bowl, yellow and orange for the flame.
- Tell them Guru Nanak Jayanti (24 November this year) is the birthday of Guru Nanak Dev Ji, the first Sikh Guru. Homes and gurdwaras are lit with diyas and lights, and everyone shares langar together.
- Any diya your child draws in Part C is right – praise the bowl, the top and the flame, and let them add their own patterns.
✅ Answer key
- Part A: bowl (half circle) → top (oval) → flame (drop shape) → zigzag line and dots, then colour
- Part B: the traced diya has a flame, an oval top, a bowl, a zigzag line and three dots
- Part C: any diya with a bowl, a top and a flame is correct
