We attended the children's Ayyam-i-Ha party on Sunday. It was very lively, with music, art projects, and a cake walk.
Ayyam-i-Ha is a period of festivity for Baha'is, our gift-giving time. It lasts four days, and it preceeds the 19 day fast.
It is a time to extend hospitality and renew old acquaintences, to visit the sick, to extend assistance to others.Over the years our family has celebrated with home visits, devotionals, study classes, and prayer breakfasts. Music and art have always been a strong freature of our family's Ayyam-i-Ha - the poster above was put together here in our home by Baha'i youth last year.
