Things and Activities to Do on Krishna Janamashtmi with Kids
1. Celebrate the birthday of Lord Krishna with kids and indulge in a delicious feast on this day. Families prepare a lavish feast consisting of the favorite foods of Lord Krishna and offer Him first before feeding the family. You may engage kids in preparing these delicacies and have a good time.
2. Going to temples with family on this day is full of fun as the whole atmosphere is filled with celebrations and gaiety. Not to forget, the statues of Radha and Krishna are beautifully adorned with ornaments and flowers, and temples are decorated with lights. However, maintain a proper distance and good hygiene all the time.
3. In addition, it is a pleasure to watch TV channels telecasting the celebrations of Janamashtmi in various parts of India, such as in the birth city of the lord, that is Mathura. It develops the interest of kids in this festival and reminds them that good always wins over evil forces.
4. While celebrating the festival at home, decorate your house, create a special place to replicate the city of Mathura, and dress up your kiddo as Krishna or Radha. Click pictures, share with friends, and enjoy with family virtually.
5. Decorate your temple at home with flower garlands, leaves, and ribbons. Create a decorated swing to place your small Krishna idol in it. You may place a decorated 'dahi handi' in the room as your gesture of love for the lord.

6. You may narrate stories of Krishna to your kids, read about him online, and share your childhood experiences of this festival.
8. Create a "Digital Jhanki" or "Krishna-verse." Instead of a physical diorama, build a virtual temple scene using a creative app or a sandbox video game. This allows for endless customization and can be a collaborative project, where kids use their digital skills to build and decorate a festive, animated scene for Lord Krishna.
9. Host a Janmashtami-themed "Binge & Bhajans" night. Gather the family for a movie marathon of shows or films about Lord Krishna, followed by a sing-along session of devotional songs. Animated movies/shows such as Krishna aur Kans, Krishna Makhan Chor, Bal Krishna and The Little Krishna - The Legendary Warrior are Kids' favorites.
You can find modern, upbeat versions of bhajans on YouTube and Spotify, making the experience both soulful and trendy for everyone to enjoy together.
10. Organize a "Dahi Handi" scavenger hunt with a twist. Hide small "dahi handi" pots filled with goodies and clues around the house or garden. Each clue can lead to a fun fact about Lord Krishna's life, and the final prize could be a personalized treat, blending the traditional game with a modern treasure hunt format.
