Year 3 - 6 Ojos de Dios

Students loved creating the traditional God's Eyes or, in Spanish, Ojos de Dios, and first learned its history. This craft originated with the Huichol indigenous people in western Mexico. The God's Eye is started the first year a baby is born and each year a new colour of yarn is added. It hangs over the child's bed and symbolises God's protective eye watching over the child.
