Today is the Indian festival of lights (Diwali). It is said that Diwali is celebrated in honor of the return of Lord Rama from exile of 14 years after defeating evil demon Ravana. To honor and celebrate the return of the beloved hero and triumph of good over evil, people illuminated the path by lighting diyas (lamps).
To celebrate this auspicious day, my daughter and I made these beautiful flower shaped lamps to decorate our home. It is such a simple Diwali craft to make, my daughter had a great time painting the flower lamp and decorating it with lace.
Two-year-olds have infinite energy and engaging them in festive crafts is a great way to teach them about the festival while helping them develop their creativity and keeping them away from the screen. Try it out - we now have beautiful lamps to celebrate this festival of lights.
Wish you all a very happy and prosperous Diwali!
These lovely flower lamps are also a great addition to Christmas decoration or any special occasion.
