Diwali

What is Diwali? Diwali is an Indian festival of light. How do you celebrate Diwali? Well it's quite simple.

First you go to friends/neighbours and give them sweets. You often also sit down and have a chat with them.

Secondly make it seem like a special occasion. Have a special dinner or go to your favourite restaurant.

And lastly at night put oil or ghee white a string of cotton in a Diya and light it on fire until it burns out.

There is a much more religious side to this festival but I will not talk about it here. Another fun thing that we do for Diwali is light sparklers and spin them very fast to make it look like it's a very short lived yellow circle. Overall Diwali is one of my favourite festivals of all time.
