Yes, Diwali is coming soon, and you may want your kids to make an invitation to your celebration, send cards to close family and friends, or make cards as an activity at the party. In any of these cases, here is an idea for Diwali cards:
Cut squares of colorful construction paper into very small pieces; then store each color in a separate section of an egg carton. Next, fold a 9×12 sheet of black construction paper in half. On the front of the card, use a pencil to sketch a simple Diwali picture; then “color” the sketch by gluing the construction-paper pieces, mosaic-style, on the card. Glue sticks work best for this step. Position the pieces so that small amounts of black can be seen between them, resulting in a stained glass look. Finally, glue a white piece of paper inside the card; use a fine-tipped marker to write a Diwali message such as, “Peace and Prosperity to You and Yours!”
Diwali is right around the corner and I was recently asked for a party hat idea for the celebration. Here is an easy and great craft to make at your party this year:
Diwali is a joyful festival of lights that celebrates the New Year in India and by Indians throughout the world. This is a huge holiday that is celebrated with a holiday from school, special foods, people dressed in their best clothes, giving each other sweets and gifts, and decorating their homes with flowers and lamps, and, of course, fireworks.
