What do festive celebrations do for us?
Festivals have a way of bringing us closer. When we celebrate something together, it automatically brings us closer and makes for a stronger bond. No matter how far away you are from your sibling physically, the arrival of ‘Rakhee ‘ ‘Rakshabandhan’ is bound to make you miss your sibling, feel nostalgic about the good times you have had together.
They create a sense of community. Those who celebrate together stay together. We all need a sense of belonging and community. Whatever the festival, from Eid to Christmas to Janmashtami, when we come together and enjoy the festival together, it builds a community. We exchange customs, adopt those from other communities and make them our own, thus creating and being a part of something special
How to plan a super hit party for toddlers and munchkins
Planning a party for the very young is different from other parties. They have short attention spans, you need help to manage them as they cannot do things for themselves, they need to be engaged, etc. So how do we plan parties for toddlers? Birthdays can be a great time to create memories, create bonds, and have a special day for the family. Just keep in mind that doing too much and trying to cram in too many things is not good for little children who may get cranky from overstimulation, crowds, and lack of naps.
Fun activities and more for Father's day! How to make it special!
Every day we spend with Dad is special, but some days are more so than others. You look up to your dad from the time you are a toddler and in some sense, though you may grow up to be a friend to the man who supported you every step of the way, you still look up to him as an adult.
How do you make father’s day special?
Let dad know you think of him all the time with a day of specials! Start with breakfast in bed and end it with a bedtime story. For the entire middle of the day, between breakfast in bed and bedtime stories, there are many age-appropriate ideas that you can indulge in.
