Navratri X Dussehra (and Gandhi Jayanti!)

Info: Do you enjoy this Indian festival? I do! Fun Fact: Did you know there are two Navratris in a year? Choti and Badi Navratri! 🌼 Pre-Navratri Before Navratri began, I visited my grandmother’s house. I played with my little sister and even got a pair of shiny dandiyas. I couldn’t wait to use them! ✨ My 9 Days of Navratri - Colour Journey! ✨ Day 1 - White: 🀍✨ I wore white as that was the colour of the day. Day 2 - Red: πŸ”΄πŸ”₯ I wore bright red.

The Mouse and the Moonbeam

One night, a tiny mouse named Lila saw a bright moonbeam shining through her window. It looked like a silver ladder touching the ground. Curious, Lila climbed the moonbeam. To her surprise, it held her! She climbed higher and higher until she reached the moon itself. The Moon smiled and said, “Thank you for visiting! I get lonely up here.” Lila sat with the Moon and told stories about the forest - fireflies dancing, owls hooting, and berries that stained her paws purple. The Moon listened happily. When it was time to go, the Moon said, “Here is a gift.” It sent a tiny sparkle of light into Lila’s paws. Back home, Lila discovered the sparkle could glow in the dark. She used it to light her friends’ paths at night so no one would be scared. Moral: A little light can help everyone. Liked the story? How about a quiz!
