Ganesh Chaturthi is a must to celebrate festival for all the kids or students. Lord Ganesha is considered as God of wisdom and intelligence, and that is the reason, its celebrated in educational institutes especially, involving all. Lord Ganesha is also considered as the God who removes all obstacles from our life. So when we do inaugurate a new home, or do any new establishment, we worship the statue of Lord Ganesha and keep him for every day offerings. So with these values and culture, this festival has a special significance on our thoughts, that's carried over generations. In southern parts of India, its celebrated in very grand ways. So much so that, they celebrate this for almost a month. And new dresses are must for the students / kids. So who would not love that ?

Covid19 has made this year miserable. In our culture, we do celebrate various occasions in grand ways. It's told that, we have 13 celebrations at the minimum, in 12 months. The meaning of that is we celebrate more than we should be. But that is what a culture is. The brotherhood, togetherness in these celebrations is what makes the culture rich. This year, the government has banned all such celebrations, fearing public gathering could be a disaster. So this time it is mostly home only celebration.

We brought a mini Ganesha and aksed our kids to do the offerings at home. Of course, we did buy them new clothes. On this occasion, the students put something in this puja - a book or a pen or pencil. It's believed, blessings from the lord is reflected in them. Kids put two pencils and did the puja themselves, with our guidance. It's those values, belief which makes them strong. And nothing is stronger than belief - may Lord Ganesha bless this world and this difficult time goes over soon and we return back to normalcy.
