Print This Craft

Talk about the customs and traditions associated with Kwanzaa as the kids color their favorite Kwanzaa coloring pages. This is a good exercise for all kids so they can understand and appreciate different cultures.

Trivia:

 It is they who, as Mary M. Bethune taught, are the “heirs and custodians” of our cultural legacy as a people. This dual function as heirs and custodians means that they not only inherit African culture—its narrative and achievements, its views and values—but must assume responsibility for its preservation and expansion.
