In such a situation, if this is your little one’s first Holi, then it can be made memorable with these fun ideas and safety tips.

Fun ways to make your first Holi special

Theme based photoshoot

Dress the child in white or yellow traditional clothes. Do a cute photoshoot with flower petals or light gulal. Use a small board or props with “My First Holi” written on it.

Holi with flowers

Play Holi with marigold and rose petals instead of chemical colours. It is both safe and beautiful.

family celebration

Have a small Holi gathering at home. Celebrate baby’s first Holi with grandparents and relatives. Play traditional songs and apply light tilak for blessings.

create a memory box

Keep a photo, a small piece of clothing, or a written note from the first Holi – it will be a very special memory for your child when they grow up.

Must follow safety tips

use natural colors

Avoid chemical colors from the market. Homemade turmeric, sandalwood or flower colors are better options.

Skin and hair protection

First apply coconut or almond oil on the baby’s skin. Avoid getting color in eyes, nose and mouth.

protection from water

Keep very young children away from Holi with water. There is a risk of catching cold.

distance from loud noise

Children may get scared by drums or loud music, so keep the atmosphere calm and comfortable.
