Diwali, the Festival of Lights, is one of the most significant and widely celebrated festivals in India and among communities around the world, including right here in the UK. It’s a time for family gatherings, vibrant decorations, delicious feasts, and joyous celebrations. But for children, Diwali holds an extra magical charm – it’s a time filled with excitement, colours, and creativity.
Let’s dive into how kids celebrate Diwali and how you can add even more joy to their festivities with our personalised Diwali crayons and colouring cards!
How Do Kids Celebrate Diwali?
Diwali is celebrated over five days, with each day holding its own special significance. For kids, these days are brimming with activities that blend tradition, creativity, and fun.
1. Creating Rangoli Patterns
Rangoli, intricate designs created on the floor using coloured powders, is an integral part of Diwali. Kids love participating in this tradition, adding their own creative flair with vibrant patterns. This is often the highlight of Diwali mornings, as children excitedly help design and colour these beautiful patterns at the entrance of their homes to welcome prosperity and good fortune.
2. Lighting Diyas and Sparklers
Lighting small clay lamps (diyas) is a symbolic gesture of dispelling darkness and ushering in light. For kids, lighting diyas with family and playing with sparklers is an exciting part of the evening celebrations. The flicker of the candles, the soft glow of lamps, and the sparkle of fireworks create a magical atmosphere that every child adores.
3. Dressing in Traditional Clothes
Diwali is a special occasion for dressing up! Kids often wear bright, colourful traditional outfits, like kurtas, lehengas, and sarees. The festival is an opportunity to feel regal and festive, and it’s a moment when family photos are taken, capturing the smiles and joy of the celebration.
4. Sharing Sweets and Gifts
Sweets, or “mithai”, are an essential part of Diwali. Children often get involved in making or distributing sweets to neighbours, friends, and family. Exchanging gifts is another tradition, and this is something kids look forward to with glee. Receiving little presents, sweets, or Diwali treats adds to their sense of festivity.
5. Creative Diwali Activities
Beyond the traditions, kids love engaging in creative activities such as making Diwali cards, painting diyas, or participating in school Diwali art projects. Crafting their own decorations like paper lanterns or garlands brings another layer of excitement to the festival.
