Diwali, also known as the Festival of Lights, is a special celebration that happens every year, usually in October or November. On this day, people light up their homes with tiny lamps called diyas and make colorful designs called rangolis. They celebrate by wearing new clothes, sharing sweets, and bursting fireworks. Diwali is important to many religions like Hinduism, Jainism, and Sikhism. It marks the victory of good over evil and light over darkness. Families come together to pray, eat delicious food, and enjoy time with each other, creating a happy and joyful atmosphere everywhere.

How to celebrate Diwali?

Start your day by wearing new clothes and decorating your house with colorful rangoli and bright lights. In the evening, gather with family and friends for a special meal filled with tasty sweets and snacks. Light small oil lamps called diyas and place them around the house to make it glow. Enjoy sparklers and fireworks outside with everyone, but always be safe and ask an adult to help. Share gifts and sweets with neighbors and friends, spreading joy and happiness. End the day by enjoying the fun stories and laughter with your loved ones, feeling grateful for the good times.
