There are many different versions of the stories behind Naraka Chaturdashi. One of the most popular versions is that Lord Krishna, his wife Satyabhama, and Goddess Kali slew the demon king Narakasur on this day. In the context of teaching values to kids, Naraka Chaturdashi emphasizes the significance of teamwork. It encourages standing against injustice to achieve a common goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Day_3_Lakshmi_Puja_Diwali\"><\/span><strong>Day 3: Lakshmi Puja (Diwali)<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image wp-block-image size-full\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bachpanglobal.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Lakshmi-Puja-Diwali-Blog-Image.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"390\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bachpanglobal.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Lakshmi-Puja-Diwali-Blog-Image.jpg\" alt=\"Lakshmi Puja (Diwali)\" class=\"wp-image-4572\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bachpanglobal.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Lakshmi-Puja-Diwali-Blog-Image.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.bachpanglobal.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Lakshmi-Puja-Diwali-Blog-Image-300x156.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>The main Diwali festival falls on the third day when the entire family gathers together. They offer their prayers to Goddess Laxmi on the darkest night of the month in the Indian calendar. It is said that on this day, Lord Rama returned to Ayodhya after his fourteen-year exile. It is also said that Goddess Laxmi got married to Lord Vishnu on this day. Diwali thus celebrates fresh beginnings. In addition to enticing kids with feasts and festivities, it\u2019s a great opportunity to act out Diwali stories.

Govardhan Puja is, in essence, a reminder to develop humility and protect, respect, and appreciate the bounties of nature.

While each one of the five days of Diwali has its significance, the five key values that kids can be inspired by are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1. The value of self-discipline and modesty (of which Lord Rama himself was a master)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. The value of choosing to be friends with good people and cherishing their company<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. The value of keeping one\u2019s promises and honouring one\u2019s commitments even when circumstances create hardships&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4. The value of love and devotion (primarily epitomised by Lord Hanuman)&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>5. The value of unity, togetherness, and staying rooted in one\u2019s roots<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span><strong>Conclusion&nbsp;<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The five-day festival of Diwali is all about love, light, and gratitude. The people of Ayodhya expressed this by lighting \u2018diyas\u2019 and decorating homes when Lord Rama returned from his exile. Today\u2019s kids are tomorrow\u2019s leaders, hence the significance of the five days of Diwali for kids grows manifold. As parents, educators, and guardians, it is our prime duty to inculcate cultural values in them. We must also give them a strong foundation for a dynamic future. At Bachpan Play School, we carry out this duty with the utmost sincerity for kids\u2019 overall growth.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yes, it\u2019s that time of the year when the festival of Diwali has arrived in all its splendour and gaiety!
