Navratri and Dussehra are just around. As a parent or teacher, you must be looking for new fun and creative activities which you can ask your children to do.
Instead of informing kids about Dusshera, what if we engage them into meaningful activities which bring them fun as well as the knowledge of the culture too?
Here are Three amazing Dusshera activities you can do with your kids this season.
1. Kill the Ravan, an activity with Havi’s robotics kit
In this activity, we will prepare the Dussehra set-up and then, will add some fun and tech in it, using Havi – DIY Robotics starter kit.
In this, we will draw a sketch of ravan on the baloon and will place that near to the circuit. As we blow the balloon, LEDs will glow and buzzer will make the sound.
