Celebrate the magic and community of Diwali at the third annual Diwali Play Date, hosted by New Jersey-based Modi Toys, a pioneer in children’s brand of modern toys and books rooted in ancient Hindu culture. Together with established U.S. based South Asian food brand, Laxmi, and multicultural children’s community brand, HAVA, they will transform the Park Villa in South Plainfield into a Diwali wonderland.

What to Expect:

- Parents looking to mark the beginning of the Hindu New Year with their children and share their culture, or simply inspire them to learn about Diwali, can expect to rekindle the spark they once felt as a kid during the holidays at this Diwali Play Date.

- The family-friendly event will provide hands-on parent-and-me activities to experience Diwali traditionally with a modern flair.

- A large communal rangoli will be created with a beautiful spread of colored Basmati rice, courtesy of Laxmi, for kids to fill in.

- There will also be a story time, a ladoo-making workshop led by Priya Krishna, the NYT journalist and best-selling cookbook author, a dance workshop and other activities to keep the kids immersed and engaged.

Tickets & Registration:

- The ticketed event is open to the public.
