Wishing all our families who celebrate a very Happy Diwali (de-vah-lee)! Today, we learned all about how Diwali is celebrated both in India and abroad. While there are several important parts that make up this popular celebration including lighting diyas, one of the special aspects of Diwali  is the creation of Rangolis. Rangoli is an art form that uses symmetry, geometric shapes, and vibrant colours to create intricate patterns. During the celebration of Diwali, Rangolis are used as a decoration drawn on the floor, typically at the entrances of homes, as they are thought to bring good luck and prosperity to the families that live there. While Rangoli is often created using coloured sand, we have created our own unique versions using various materials.
