Diwali festivities mean tons of holidays for kids in the
family. The little ones can be quite a handful for elders amidst all activities
and preparations for Diwali. Undoubtedly, having kids around brings in the real
fun at home; their banter, running around, sneaking in sweets are memories that
we, adults also experienced while growing up. You can still have a win-win in
the Diwali shopping madness i.e. manage the kids yet keep all preparations
under control. So what’s the magic formula? We say, ‘If you can’t control them,
keep them busy’. Shower them with gifts that keep them busy all through and
introduce them to activities that help them understand the real meaning of
celebrating Diwali. Here are some shopping suggestions for kids on Diwali
When Learning = Fun
Buy some board games and puzzles and let them exercise their grey cells. Not to forget, these board games and puzzles are very affordable and can be ordered online. Another way to ensure that they don’t reach out to the TV remote at home is books. Comics and story books will encourage their reading habit and even take their mind off television.

Dressing up their
room
Kids take a lot of pride in decorating their room these days. Encourage them to clean their rooms, arrange beds during Diwali to welcome Goddess Laxmi. Since, we all buy new furnishings and linen on Diwali it’s a great idea to involve kids, if they are old enough to choose furnishings and bed linen of their room. Trust me your kids will absolutely love this shopping even more than their latest play station.

Indulging their Sweet
Tooth
It goes without saying that kids love mithais and chocolates
any time of the year. Diwali is time to let go a bit and indulge them with their favorite chocolates and sweets. Yes, a word of caution of brushing teeth in
night is good. Everyone is allowed to forego their diet and kids should also
have their bit of fun.
