Happy Diwali!

 
Diwali, the festival of lights, is one of the most important festivals in the Hindu religious calendar, and marks the end of the Hindu year. We watched and discussed two great video clips about a little girl called Jessica and her family as they prepared to celebrate together (CBeebies - Let's Celebrate). Afterwards, we looked at some beautiful traditional costumes! 

Have you ever worn some special clothes for a family celebration? We would love to see some photographs and hear all about your special day.
