Happy Eco-friendly Holi to you

Smearing colors on each other and splashing water- this scene instantly brings fond memories of the Holi festival to our minds though I only watch people splashing water and colors. :)

My idea of Holi is all about preparing delicacies and enjoying them with family. Besides, I enjoy exchanging greetings with all those who mean to me a lot in my life. In fact, I do feel we can find some eco-friendly and alternative ways to enjoy Holi as often we hear mishaps due to negligence or otherwise.

Alternate Ways to Celebrate Holi This Year


1. Instead of wasting tonnes of water down the streets, it would be better to create a huge water tub filled with natural colors at the commonplace and enjoy the celebrations. However, there are other ways too that exclude unnecessary water usage.

2. Another way instead attractive option is to play Holi with flower petals. In some parts of India, people shower petals on each other and celebrate in an eco-friendly way.

3. Create colors at home with daily-use items such as turmeric, vegetables, henna powder, sandalwood powder, dried leaves, and flowers. These are natural and skin-friendly giving no harm to users. Avoid chemical colors and other harmful options.
                                                      
4. Involving kids in Holi preparations be it in the kitchen or in decoration is another awesome way. Ask your kids to express their feelings about the festival by way of drawings/ paintings or write-ups as well.

5. Switch to colors on the paper. Let kids draw, color/ paint their thoughts and feelings related to the festival on the canvas. Just see what comes out and enjoy the creation. My six-year-old daughter created her imagination on paper and here it is:



We pasted her masterpiece on the door of her room.

Let there be colors of love, faith, hope, and happiness everywhere. Wish you all a safe, memorable, and eco-friendly Holi!!
