Kids Diya Painting Workshop + Make Your Own Ubtan
Get your little ones ready for Diwali with an afternoon of painting, mixing, and a whole lot of festive fun!
Diyas are small clay oil lamps that families light during Diwali, the festival of lights. They stand for light winning over darkness. In this workshop, every kid paints two handmade clay diyas made by a local potter. They’ll use bright colors, dots, and sparkle to make them their own.
Then we switch to the ubtan station! Ubtan is a traditional body scrub made from natural plant powders, used in Indian homes for generations, especially on Diwali morning. Kids mix their own and take home a jar.

Good to know
- We’ll be using acrylic paint, which doesn’t wash out of clothes, so dress kids in something that can get messy. Aprons provided.
- Diyas may still be a little tacky at pickup. We’ll pack them up to travel home.
- Please let us know about any allergies when you book.
- For kids under 7 we ask that parents/guardian stay with them. Kids 7 and up can be dropped off, just make sure parents are back by 4pm for pick up 😊
