Diwali Activities for Kids

This Diwali subcategory brings together four topic pages so you can choose an activity without searching through unrelated printables. Diwali Activities for Kids includes a mix of simple tasks for festive learning. Diwali Coloring Pages give children space to colour diyas, rangoli patterns, lamps and other Diwali-themed pictures. Diwali Worksheets support tracing, matching, counting, letters and early writing. Diwali Crafts for Kids gives you paper-based ideas to make with common classroom or household materials. The pages suit quiet table work, a short activity before a family celebration or a Diwali classroom display.

For children aged 3 to 5, start with large pictures, easy colouring, line tracing, matching and simple pattern work. Children aged 5 to 7 may enjoy counting diyas, completing words, copying short greetings and finishing rangoli patterns. For ages 7 to 9, choose worksheets with more writing, number practice or several steps in one task. Children aged 9 to 12 can add their own designs, write about a Diwali custom or create a repeating pattern with colour. Let your child work at a comfortable level, even if that means choosing a simpler page.

At home, set out crayons, pencils and a few craft supplies for a short Diwali activity after school. Your child could colour a diya, count the shapes on a page, then make a paper decoration from their own design. In class, use a worksheet for quiet work while small groups complete a craft or compare rangoli patterns. Display finished pages on a noticeboard or send them home in a folder. Read the instructions aloud for younger children, and allow older children to work independently before sharing their choices with the group.

Choose a topic page, open the printable you need and download the PDF from EarlyActivity. Most printables are free, but downloading needs a free account. A free account can download up to 20 printables a day. The files are sized for A4 and US Letter paper. In your printer settings, select Actual size or 100% rather than Fit to page, then check the preview before printing. Print only what you need for your own home or classroom. Sharing or reselling the files is not allowed.
