What are some good activites for celebrating girls' coming of age?!
Question:
We are not mothers, we are simply providing a program for young girls and are interested in incorporating some empowering activities about growing up and menstruation.
Answers:
There is a native American coming of age ritual(that is still practiced) that involves a four day celebration, involving: dancing, meditation, separation, and a rejoining, lots of food, little sleep and other things that are meant to celebrate womanhood and give them a small sample of the trials of women.
This practices is probably a little extreme for most of us, but the ideas are solid. Maybe for your program you could cook something together, play group games, watch a girl movie, and talk about there concerns about growing up.
