Prachi khandelwal , an educator , mum of twins and Co-Founder of TheMarigoldmums expressed, “As modern mums, we get it. We get what it feels like to want to pass down the richness of our culture, but not know where to begin...When the idea of a Diwali festival and playdate started to unfold, we envisioned mums like us away from our homeland... yet eager to celebrate and share the magic of the Festival of Lights with their little ones “
Keshal Parekh , a supply chain strategist , mum of two toddlers and Co-founder of The Marigoldmums commented, “We considered our children's enthusiasm for popular Western holidays and felt why not shine a bright light on Diwali for them. We want our kids to connect with our heritage, while relishing and enjoying simple, yet meaningful traditions.”
Our new mom on board Pakkhi Pahuja who is also a twin mom and an experienced and renowned Makeup artist as Marketing head of The Marigoldmums shared “ To truly experience something, you must awaken every part of yourself. Back in India, you may recall how everything around you naturally resonates with more intensity and sweetness... your senses are constantly immersed in unforgettable moments. Our Diwali Festival and Play Date is our passionate endeavor to recreate that atmosphere – a beautiful, vibrant, and mesmerizing Diwali celebration that will be etched in our little ones' hearts for years to come.”
