Nowruz Fun Pack

For us who live far away from home, to familiarize our children with original Iranian narratives and maintain ties to the ancient literature of our country is very valuable and beautiful. One of the best books in this field is The Violets of Amu Nowruz which has recreated one of the most ancient Iranian narratives— Nowruz. Amu Nowruz, the symbol of spring and life, and Nane-Sarma, the symbol of winter and sleep, build the main structure of this story.

Along The Violets of Amu Nowruz, a handbook has been published that provides more information on the book, its author and illustrator, and also offers interesting pre-reading and post-reading activities.These activities include kids crafts, learning about Nowruz traditions and festivals, plays and scripts, and more.

Amu Nowruz is another storybook that through its interesting narrative, tells us about the Iranian festival of Nowruz.

Gomaneh is the localized Iranian version of the game Stogite. The pack includes a box, 72 cards, a board, 6 counters, 36 ballot cards, and a guidebook. On the cards of this game you can see surreal drawings, all inspired by Farsi stories and fiction. Since the players need to use their imagination, the game gets very interesting and exciting. In fact, in order to earn more points, the players use their imagination to guess which card the other player had said a sentence, a poem, or a proverb about. This exciting game enhances self confidence, social skills, and problem solving skills, and at the same time boosts the imagination and creativity in children and will help them better focus and pay attention to details.

One of the best ways to entertain kids is to bake cakes and cookies with them; and as we get ready for Nowruz, this pack of cookie cutters can really come in handy. These cutters are in the shapes of haft-sin items: garlic, fish bowl, eggs, apple, sabze (grass), clock, and vinegar. Children can decorate the cookies as they like. This definitely adds more to the beauty of your haft-sin setting at home, and brings more joy and happiness to your Iranian New Year.
