Holi- the festival of colours, always brings a lot of joy to kids and adults. The festival marks the onset of a change in weather and welcomes the spring season in the country- a respite from the chilly winter. The celebration is all about colours, music, loads of fun and mouth-watering recipes. Just a little preparation beforehand can ensure you celebrate the festival in its entirety and the joyous way it was meant to be!
As we, at KSP, prepare for the festival of colours, we list down some essentials to make sure you are all set for Holi!
Holi Ready Skin
Make sure you apply oil liberally on your child's body, face, and hair so that the colour doesn't penetrate deep into the skin. Olive oil, coconut oil and almond oil all work very well on your child's skin. Apply a layer of moisturiser or sunscreen over the oil.
Don't forget to watch these essential hacks every mom needs before they celebrate Holi with the kids!
Holi is all about the right costumes. Comfort is the key here, so don't go for pricey or designer wears. Make them wear fully covered clothes so that very less skin comes in contact with the colours. Add to your child's style quotient by adding a pair of cool sunglasses and a bandana to protect their eyes and head. Comfortable and durable footwear is a must too. Crocs or flip-flops work best.
