Diwali Greetings

Send holiday greetings for Diwali, the Hindu year-end celebration. You'll brighten someone's day with light and good wishes.

1. The end of any year is a good time to think about how the year went and to dream about how you want the next one to be. Diwali is a 5-day festival marking the end of the year for Hindu people. It is also a time to reach out to others and wish them well and success in the upcoming year.

2. Many people send Diwali cards with wishes to friends and family. To make your cards, fold white paper in interesting shapes. On the covers draw your Diwali good wishes with Crayola® Crayons. Diwali cards often have the Diwa light or a votive oil light on them.

3. To symbolize wealth and good fortune for the coming year, make the card sparkly and shiny with Crayola Glitter Glue. Dry.

4. Write your personal greetings inside the card.

Adult supervision is required for any arts & crafts project.
