Holi- the colorful festival of India

Holi is the most popular festival among kids in India. One can witness the excitement in kids everywhere, days before the festival actually comes. Water guns, water balloons, colors, and unlimited fun on the streets portray the actual scenario of Holi.

Holi is considered the festival of gaiety and joy. It is the time to leave behind animosity and embrace new relations. The festival has though changed in its form, yet the essence continues to be the same. Natural colors and traditional pichkaris have transformed into synthetic colors and the latest water guns. However, the spirit is the same as that of fun, feast, and festivity.

3. Mix these colors with a bucket full of water and fill your water guns and balloons. Now you are all set to enjoy the Holi.
