Ridvan celebrates Baha’u’llah’s time in 1863 in the garden of Ridvan in Baghdad when He publicly declared His station as a Manifestation of God. The Ridvan Festival is 12 days long and is also the time of year when Baha’is elect their governing bodies.
In this “Creative Ideas” video by Baha’i Blog, Rayan shows us how to make a flower made of paper. Baha’u’llah teaches us that we are all like the flowers of one garden, so you can create with your kids a whole bunch of different colored paper flowers to add to your own garden in order to demonstrate this.
“Creative Ideas” is a new Baha’i Blog video series where we show you how to play or create a variety of games and arts-and-crafts for you to use in your activities.
Naysan is passionate about using the arts and media to explore the teachings of the Baha’i Faith. Back in 2011, Naysan started up the Baha’i Blog project, channeling his experiences in both media and technology companies to help create a hub for Baha’i-inspired content online.
