Diwali Decor Ideas for Kids

October 30, by Sarah White. Leave a Comment

Diwali the festival of lightscelebrated by many religious groups including Hindus, Sikhs, Jains and some Buddhists, is a holiday that lends itself easily to crafting while learning.

Clay lamps known as diya and intricate sand designs called rangoli are common decorations seen during Diwali, and lanterns, colorful decorations and flowers are normally seen everywhere.

Artsy Craftsy Mama has a great collection of Diwali crafts you can make with kids, including lanterns, lotus flowers and marigolds (which are great for Day of the Dead celebrations as well), elephant crafts and more.

While you’re making your Diwali inspired crafts, you can talk about the holiday and how it celebrates the triumph of good over evil and the importance of friends and family in our lives. This article from National Geographic Kids gives a good overview.
