Whether it’s for a holiday, a birthday, or “just because,” the act of giving a gift can be as joyful as receiving one. Children, of course, adore the excitement of opening presents. But learning to give and to embrace generosity is an essential skill that helps children grow into thoughtful, compassionate adults.
At Little Sunshine’s Playhouse & Preschool, our Creatively Shine™ curriculum theme, “Celebrations Around the World,” explores how different cultures celebrate through unique traditions, decorations, and festivities. To help you bring this theme to life at home, we’ve designed a fun, hands-on project that your child will love: Celebration Lanterns!

Here, we’ll share some inspiring playroom ideas based on this approach, along with tips to nurture your child’s development in a playful, creative way.
