Simple lamps and detailed designs
This set includes diyas in different shapes and settings, from large, clear outlines for younger children to decorated lamps with patterns for older children. Some pictures show a single diya, while others include flowers, rangoli patterns, rows of lamps or a festive home setting. Children can use crayons, colour pencils, sketch pens or paint. Younger children can practise staying inside bold outlines. Older children can add shading, repeated patterns and their own border designs.
Ideas for home and the classroom
Use these diya colouring pages before Diwali to start a simple conversation about lamps, light and family celebrations. In class, children can colour one page, write Diwali or दीपावली below it, and display the work on a noticeboard. Ask younger children to name the colours they have used. Older children can label the diya, wick and flame, then write two sentences about a festival tradition. Pair this activity with Indian Flag Coloring Pages for an India-themed art folder.
Small facts children can remember
A diya is a small lamp, often made from clay, with oil or ghee and a cotton wick. People light diyas during Diwali and on other special occasions, and many families place them near doors, windows or a prayer space. The light is often connected with goodness, hope and the removal of darkness. Remind children that a real flame is hot, so an adult should handle lighting and placing diyas safely.
Lumi's tips
- For a younger child, offer two or three colour choices and invite them to fill the large diya shape first.
- For an older child, ask them to create a repeated rangoli border and add light and shade around the flame.
- After colouring, place the picture near a safe festival display and talk about how your family celebrates Diwali.
