Diwali is a family festival. It's called the 'Festival of Lights'. It's a
celebration of the victory of 'good' over 'bad' with special lights
or 'diyas', and candles. The family is important in traditional
Diwali activities.

We usually celebrate Diwali in October or November at the start of
the Hindu New Year. The festival is five days of celebrations.

It's an international festival, but India's got a bigger Hindu population
than any other country, so it's very important there. Other countries
with Hindus also celebrate it, for example, Nepal, Sri Lanka,
Malaysia, Singapore and parts of Europe.

It's important for people and their houses to be clean. We also wear
the most colourful clothes we can: yellow, red and green. Diwali is a
festival of colour! Family is always important to Hindus, but during
Diwali it's even more important. People celebrate with their families
at home and they eat special meals. It's a wonderful time!​
