India is a country known for its rich cultural heritage. Its diversity, whether in terms of people, food, traditions, languages, or customs, is complex. There is so much to take in that even if you were born in this prosperous country and spent your entire life here, and there is still so much you haven&#8217;t seen or experienced. While the West increasingly looks to us for our legacy and customs, the reality is that we do not give our own country and its rich culture the attention they deserve. In fact, it is critical that we begin early and introduce our children to our rich diversity. For starters, it would be a good idea to make our youngsters aware of India&#8217;s national symbols and the immense meaning each of them carries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_69_1 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.footprintseducation.in\/blog\/the-significance-of-indian-national-symbols-for-children\/#10_National_Symbols_of_India\" title=\"10 National Symbols of India\">10 National Symbols of India<\/a><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-3' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.footprintseducation.in\/blog\/the-significance-of-indian-national-symbols-for-children\/#1_National_Anthem\" title=\"1.

From Mango being the National Fruit to Peacock being the National Bird, all these symbols go a long way in representing the country\u2019s rich heritage and evoking a sense of pride in the country and its distinct identity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let us look at some of these National symbols and understand what they stand for:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_National_Anthem\"><\/span>1. National Anthem <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Let us begin with the National Anthem &#8211; \u201cJana Gana Mana\u201d the sound of which fills us with so much pride and patriotism. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The song \u201cJana-Gana-Mana\u201d, composed originally in Bangla by Rabindranath Tagore, was adopted in its Hindi version by the Constituent Assembly as the National Anthem of India on January 24, 1950. The anthem is a harmonious testament to India\u2019s unity and diversity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_National_Flag\"><\/span>2. National Flag<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>All of us are familiar with our National Flag. Popularly known as Tiranga or the tricolor, it has three colours. Saffron represents courage and sacrifice, White that stands for peace and truth and Green that symbolizes prosperity. In the middle is the Ashoka Chakra which has 24 blue spokes and is a representation of progress. The design of the National Flag was adopted by the Constituent Assembly of India on 22 July 1947.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"6787\" src=\"https:\/\/www.footprintseducation.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/National-Flag-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"National Flag of India\" class=\"wp-image-6787\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.footprintseducation.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/National-Flag-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.footprintseducation.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/National-Flag-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.footprintseducation.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/National-Flag-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.footprintseducation.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/National-Flag.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_National_Emblem\"><\/span>3. National Emblem<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The emblem is an adaptation from the Sarnath Lion Capital of Ashoka. It was adopted as the national emblem on January 26, 1950. The sculpture draws from Buddha&#8217;s teachings and principles. It shows four Asiatic lions mounted back-to-back on a circular abacus. There&#8217;s also the Dharma Chakra (Wheel of Law), a bull, an elephant, and a horse. Below are the words \u201cSatyamev Jayate\u201d or Truth Alone Triumphs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The national emblem is used as the official seal of the President of India and the central and state governments. It&#8217;s also printed on all Indian passports and other international documents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_National_Song\"><\/span>4. National Song<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The National Song of India is \u201cVande Mataram\u201d. It was written by Bankim Chandra Chatterjee to inspire Indian citizens to fight for their freedom or independence. On January 24, 1950, our President, Dr. Rajendra Prasad announced in the Constituent Assembly that &#8220;the song Vande Mataram, which has played a historic part in the struggle for Indian freedom, shall be honored equally with Jana Gana Mana and shall have equal status with it.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cVande Mataram\u201d is more than just a composition as it captures the essence of the Indian spirit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_National_Animal\"><\/span>5.

The symbol of the Indian Rupee is \u20b9.

It will be a good idea to introduce little children to all the National symbols, one by one. Wherever possible, they should be told of their significance in an age-appropriate manner. It would be best if children could be shown these symbols so that they could build familiarity and develop a sense of pride in our culture and heritage. Early steps can go a long way in the children understanding their importance and also giving them the respect they deserve. For instance, the child needs to be introduced to the National Anthem and taught that they need to stand up for it as a mark of their respect. Similarly, the child needs to be introduced to the National flag early and told of its significance. Early discussion on the National Emblem, especially the words Satyamev Jayate, will inspire the child to live a life of truth. Seemingly small steps such as these will have the child grow up taking great pride in our Nation and the values that it stands for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At Footprints, a chain of <a aria-label=\"preschool (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.footprintseducation.in\/program-pre-school\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-orange-color\">preschool<\/mark><\/a> and <a aria-label=\"daycare (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.footprintseducation.in\/program-day-care\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-orange-color\">daycare<\/mark><\/a> that parents rely on, we follow a scientifically developed curriculum that aids in the holistic development of children.
