This festival mainly starts by cleaning, washing and renovating the whole house. All children love this festivity because: first they get holiday from schools, secondly they get to decorate their house with diyas, Argolis, lanterns, lights and the also get to burst crackers. And last but not the least they get to eat delicious sweets and delicacies made in their homes.

We also celebrate Diwali by bursting crackers, buying new clothes as there a lot of amazing deals in online as well as in shops. The most exciting things are the delicious and savory sweets and dishes made by a group of families together. Diwali is no fun if it is to celebrated alone. But instead there would unlimited fun and entertainment if there are a number of families inside our homes to celebrate this festival. The arrival of guests is the next amazing step. Lot of friends, relative as well as the workers in our house. Just imagine. Sending wishes to all our dearest ones, our teachers, our colleagues, distant relatives and all our old friends.
