Monks in the Morning Podcast

Radio Programme for Children of All Ages

You want your children to get all the benefits of their Buddhist religion. But a once a week Dhamma School just isn’t enough. Now you and your family can join with the monks of Colombo Dhamma Friends of Mahamevnawa each weekday so they can develop strong minds and virtue.

Each show is 28 minutes and includes taking refuges and precepts, chanting a paritta or a guided meditation, a short Dhamma sermon, and sometimes a short sutta reading. They always close with a merit sharing. Kids love it and they are able to use what they learn as they go about their day.
