Pictures for younger and older children
The set includes clear Diwali pictures with large spaces for younger children, along with more detailed scenes for children who enjoy careful colouring. Children may colour diyas, rangoli patterns, lanterns, sweets, family celebrations and other familiar festival details. Nursery and LKG children can practise staying inside bold outlines. Older children can choose colour combinations, add patterns and create a finished festival scene. If your child wants more colouring practice, you can also use these Diwali Coloring Pages alongside this set.
Use the pages at home or in class
Set out crayons, oil pastels or coloured pencils and let your child choose one picture without needing to finish it in one sitting. At home, use a coloured diya picture as a decoration near a study table, or make a small gallery after the family has coloured several pages. In class, children can work in pairs, compare rangoli patterns and write a short Diwali greeting on the back. Older pupils can label objects in English or Hindi. Pair the colouring with Diwali Worksheets for a longer activity.
Small Diwali facts to share
Diwali is often called the festival of lights because many families light diyas and lamps during the celebration. Rangoli is a colourful floor design made near an entrance in many Indian homes, often to welcome guests. Diwali usually takes place in October or November, but the date changes each year because it follows a lunar calendar. Traditions vary across India, so your family may celebrate with prayers, sweets, new clothes, visits or other customs.
Lumi's tips
- For a younger child, name two colours for the diya and help them colour one section at a time.
- For an older child, ask them to repeat a rangoli pattern or create a border using dots, lines and simple shapes.
- After colouring, place the picture near a safe family display and talk about one Diwali tradition shown in it.
