Holi is the festival of colours. Holi is generally celebrated for two days in the month of March.

On the first day, a bonfire is lit at night, and the goddess Holika is worshipped. Special sweet dishes are made for the occasion. The second day is ‘Dhulivandan’, when adults and children play with coloured water, powder, and water-filled balloons. Children enjoy this day a lot.

However, Holi should be celebrated with care. Healthy trees should not be cut for the bonfire. Bad-quality colour or paint should not be used. Strangers and passers-by should not be pelted with balloons or coloured powder. Only then will everyone enjoy it.
