Over 300 children gathered for the special Kids’ Diwali Celebration titled ‘The Ultimate Win’. The event began with the children participating in the mahapuja, creating an atmosphere of devotion and peace, and enabling them to connect with the deeper meaning of Diwali as a time for introspection and renewal. The children prayed for good health, academic success, and a year filled with happiness for themselves, their families, and the world.
Next, they attended a play on stories from the Ramayan. Through creative storytelling, the children learned that no service is too small for God and that unflinching faith results in the ultimate win.
The celebrations concluded with a Diwali Carnival, featuring bouncy castles, face painting, carnival-themed games, and a lively magic show.
The Kids’ Diwali Celebration blended devotion, learning, and fun, and providing participants with lasting memories and a deeper appreciation of the timeless values of Diwali. The entire event – from the initial concept to the final farewell – was planned, organized, and managed by youth volunteers.
