Each major religion has educational programming that provides children and families with instruction regarding the basic history, tenets and practices of their tradition, within a community of spiritual friendship and encouragement.

At WLHZ we offer Lotus Buds education for children aged 6-9, which is founded upon Buddhist teachings and age-appropriate meditation practices that include mindful walking, and bowing.

Through a variety of fun, kid-friendly activities, students learn about the Buddha, Dharma and Sangha, and are encouraged to practice loving-kindness in service to one another, and with their teachers, family and friends. Students also are active participants in WLHZ celebrations and ceremonies throughout the year.

Lotus Buds meets weekly during a portion of the Sangha Practice Service.
