Pictures for younger and older children
This set includes clear outlines of Mahavira, Jain temples, peaceful meditation scenes, flowers, lamps and familiar Jain symbols. Younger children can colour large, open shapes with a few colours, while older children can work on smaller details, borders and meaningful symbols. Some pictures give children a gentle way to talk about ahimsa, or kindness and non-violence, without making the activity too difficult. You can pair these pages with Buddha Purnima Activities when teaching about festivals connected with peace and thoughtful living.
Simple ways to use the pages
At home, read a short age-appropriate explanation of Mahavir Jayanti, then let your child choose a picture and talk about the colours and symbols used. In class, place the pages in a quiet activity centre or use one as a morning task before a festival discussion. Older children can write one sentence below their picture, such as how they can show kindness to people, animals or plants. Display finished work on a class board, or make a small booklet with a cover and a page about ahimsa.
Three facts children can remember
Mahavir Jayanti celebrates the birth of Vardhamana Mahavira, who is regarded in Jainism as the 24th Tirthankara. Mahavira taught people to practise ahimsa, which means avoiding harm and showing care towards living beings. He also taught the value of truth, self-control and taking only what one needs. Tell younger children that the festival is a time for prayer, reflection and kindness. Older children may enjoy learning that the word Mahavira means great hero, referring to strength of character rather than physical power.
Lumi's tips
- For a younger child, point to one large shape at a time and offer just two or three colours linked to flowers, clothing or temple details.
- For an older child, ask them to label ahimsa and write one everyday example of treating a person, animal or plant with care.
- Keep the activity connected to real life by inviting your child to choose one kind action to practise during Mahavir Jayanti.
