Basant Panchami 2025: Celebrating Knowledge and Tradition With Our Children
🌼 A Festival of Knowledge, Creativity, and Spring
Basant Panchami, dedicated to Goddess Saraswati — the deity of knowledge, wisdom, and learning — holds special significance for us at Maa Yog Kripa Seva Samiti. For our children, it’s more than a festival — it’s a joyful day of cultural connection, creativity, and togetherness.
In early 2025, our NGO organized a vibrant Basant Panchami celebration filled with learning, crafts, prayer, and traditional activities that brought smiles to every face.
📍 Highlights of the Celebration
Date: [2 February, 2025]
Venue: NGO Premises
Participants: 40+ children, volunteers, and community members
🎨 Activities That Lit Up the Day
Saraswati Puja: Children participated in a simple yet soulful puja, learning its significance and offering prayers for wisdom.
Yellow Dress Code: Everyone dressed in shades of yellow — the color of energy, brightness, and prosperity.
Rangoli & Art: Children created stunning yellow-themed rangoli and drawings to welcome spring.
Cultural Dance & Songs: Students performed Saraswati Vandana and folk dances, showcasing their confidence and enthusiasm.
💛 Impact on the Children
Many of our children come from backgrounds where festivals are rarely celebrated due to financial hardship. This celebration helped them:
Learn cultural values and traditions
Feel a sense of belonging and joy
Gain confidence by performing and creating in front of others
“I made my first rangoli today. Everyone clapped for me!”
