Why I Created This Bundle

Celebrating Diwali outside of India can feel different, and for many of us, it comes with the added responsibility of teaching our kids about their heritage. My daughter, like many children, loves coloring and playing games, and I wanted to use these interests to introduce her to Diwali in a way that’s both educational and enjoyable.

This bundle is my way of blending fun with learning, to make Diwali come alive for kids, whether they’ve experienced it firsthand or are learning about it for the first time.
