ZDK Events

Culture is where community is! We were thrilled to be sharing an evening about Indian culture with a really smart and curious troop of local Girl Scouts! 👧🏻☘️👧🏼💚👧🏽⚜️👧💚🎖🇮🇳🇺🇸

We began our evening talking about India and its diversity with languages, music, dance forms, food, and clothing.

🌶 Our food segment included the girls taking a spice tour smelling various common indian spices and getting oriented to the Indian masala box. Some girls got to grind a little spice of their own!

🥻 The clothing culture segment was interactive with explaining the significance of the sari (a commonly worn garment of India), sari draping, and touch and feel of garment; explaining the significance of bindis and ofcourse a fun tryout of various bindis that each girl excitedly put on. A small surprise for the girls to take home was a set of jingly bangles ⭕️⭕️⭕️ Our Girl Scout leader brought fun henna tattoos for the girls to try on and it completed this segment perfectly.

🍥 We introduced the concept of rangoli and its significance in many Indian homes and festivals. The girls got to color and take home rangoli coasters and get creative. 🎨⚛️❇️🫟

🫓 Our impromptu food segment included a fun demo of roti making in the and everyone got to enjoy a delish ghee roti. 😋

🛕 We cannot talk about India and not talk about its beautiful temples, religions, and spirituality. We ended the evening with a tour of the Hindu Temple of Dayton and a lot of fun storytelling.

The girls had a great time and the smiles said it all!
