Sharva as Goddess Saraswati | Fancy dress as Saraswathi

Basically Children’s love to mimic and imitate their parents, and want to become just like them. The daughters will want to dress up like their mother and the sons typically are just like their father. They love it when they involve in any activities like this with adults because they feel like they are at the same level with their parents.  This will lead to spark their imagination and parents do think creativity so that they had to mix match their items find it at home and make their children’s costumes and props.


When comes to Fancy dress, not only me all the parents do love to see their son (baby boy) dressed up like a girl once in a while.. Specially Mom does stuff like this for fun :D

Today I have tried my son Goddess Saraswathi costume on this special occasion called Saraswathi pooja festival.  All you need is a White Silk Saree or White Dhoti, a Veena – here I done it with my own using golden papers and a plastic bowl, glue and black thread for strings, and some imitation jewels, crown and hair wig those are the stuffs you can buy it from any local stores.

The Festival of Saraswathi puja is dedicated to Devi Saraswati who is the consort of Brahma, the creator, and is worshipped as the Hindu Goddess of knowledge, wisdom, arts and education.

During the puja, usage of white colour flowers is considered to be very auspicious, Devotees do perform special puja and so do children’s also offer note books and stationery items in front of the Goddess.  It is believed that the children, who are weak in studies, should chant hymns or slogans dedicated to Goddess Saraswathi.

On this day that Goddess Saraswati created powerful weapons to kill the demon named Magishasuran. The weapons are then considered as holy and people began to worship them. These rituals are followed till the date and are celebrated as Ayudha Puja, where the weapons, instruments and tools are worshipped.

Originally the Saraswathi puja and Ayudha pooja was held for nine days during the Tamil month of puratasi (August-September) the whole puja season so called as Navaratri or Nine Nights. The ninth day is also called as Maha Navami.

This is one of the greatest of Hindu festivals. People used to arrange god and goddess dolls on racks (Golu padi which is a steps made of steel and wood) and sang goddess songs at night. These events are called as Golu, in addition they do give sundals(food) for the neighbours.

Wishes Everyone a Very Happy Saraswathi and Ayudha Puja. May Goddess Saraswathi Bless you with Knowledge and Wisdom.
