CBeebies is going to be celebrating Diwali

Diwali is celebrated each year between October and November, but the exact date varies each year as the Hindu calendar is based on the Moon.

A mother, father and child are sitting on the floor celebrating Diwali.

We'd love your child to tell us what they love about this festival, and we'll be sharing some of their stories in the CBeebies House!

  • How do they celebrate Diwali? How long do Diwali celebrations go on for?

  • Do they create rangolis on the floor they could show us? Do they light diyas?

  • Do they receive presents, visit their place of worship or eat sweets like Jalebi and Gulab Jamun?

If your child is aged 0-6 and interested, please send a short video (no longer than 20 seconds) responding to the above.

Are you ready to send your stuff?
