Celebrate Holi with your child with these fun songs about holi for kids. A fun way to learn about the story of Holi Festival with your child with songs, videos and books and how people around the world celebrate holi!

I’ve found a special Holi book that your child will love for this festival!

Learning about various traditions in other cultures is one thing I encourage all families to do with their children.  It helps us to grow and appreciate the diversity that exists in the world.  It gives our children knowledge and understanding that we are all different and similar in our own ways. One place special to our hearts is India.

This spring as we anticipate the arrival of spring blossoms and bulbs and warmer weather, there is one tradition that our family from India celebrates which is Holi.  It’s a Hindu celebration of color.
