Such a great post of celebration., thanks Emily. We will be doing crafts at our grandson's school tomorrow 🤩.

I love the idea of doing a kai shop to donate/share.

We have a small potluck dinner and invite friends we haven’t seen in a long time and people we’d like to get to know better

Thanks for this inspiring post Emily! ❤️💫 We will be attending the Matariki event at my daughter's preschool this evening and sharing kai with the other whānau. We will also talk about our departed loved ones at home and look at photos. I love a lot of the ideas you have suggested so will look to incorporate some of those into our traditions including the lovely karakia and donating to our local food bank. Mānawatia a Matariki ⭐️
