This is the best part I guess! Especially for the kids of the family. And also for the famous family gluttons! Prasads are the tastiest bits of any pooja and Lohri is no exception. Once the pooja is complete and the mothers prepare to distribute the prasad among all the people, there will be some hands that will be extended first! And it is great fun to watch that! It brings so much enjoyment to the household!

#3 Cow-Dung Cakes

Believe it or not, cow-dung cakes are one of the things people bond over during Lohri. The entire family prepares to make these cakes out of cow-dung. While it is a fun sport for the kids of the family, it is a time to have fun and enjoy themselves for the adults. Of course, this is not really followed today in most houses except perhaps in villages!

Ways to Enjoy Lohri Even If You Are Away from Your Village Or Town

Every person is connected to a festival that takes him or her back to his or her roots. If Lohri is that festival for you and you stay away from home and your near and dear ones, then this is for you. We understand that staying away during the festivities when everyone else is preparing for the pooja or decking up, can be really tough and disappointing. Thus, we have something that will cheer you up on the day of Lohri. Follow this and feel a little more at home!

#1 Dress Up Well

We know that nothing substitutes the happiness of decking up with the other members of your family- may be sharing your mother’s jewellery or stealing your sister’s lipstick, or if you are a man, then asking for your brother’s or father’s help in selecting your clothes. This can be quite disappointing but we guarantee that you will feel better if you can deck up. You can call your friends over and deck up the same way and have fun!

#2 Prepare Your Pooja Thaal

#3 Pray And Enjoy with a Bonfire Nearby
