There are infinite fun activities that you can do with your family on this special day. This special day needs to be celebrated in grandeur, so make sure you get dressed in the tri-colour and enjoy the day to the fullest.

Independence day is a special day indeed for every Indian as we are brought to mind some of the freedom fighters who laid down their lives for us. Therefore, we need to celebrate this day with honour and pride in our hearts.

On Independence Day, it is a regular practice for us Indians to pay homage to our leaders and those who fought for India's freedom in the past. If you and your family decide to take a drive around the city, you will notice the bright tri-colour flag on government buildings and even on residential buildings and cars.

If you are not sure on what to do this Independence Day, we have a bunch of 10 activities for the kids and you.

This Independence Day, let's celebrate with our family. Here are some Independence day activities for kids and family members-

Handmade crafts

Now which child does not love to get messy with paints and sketches? Purchase a white chart board and help your child in making our Indian National Flag. You need only four colours - saffron orange, white, blue and green. This Independence day activity for kids is special as you also get to spend time with them on this glorious day.

Television time

Another best Independence day activity for kids and you is to spend time in front of the television watching some of the best Independence Day movies. You can complete this family bonding while munching on popcorn.

Take part in the parade

To acknowledge and pay respect to our freedom fighters, you and your children can wake up early morning to watch the parade. This will help educate your children on how our fighters strove hard to get us our Independence. It will also help in bonding with your child.

Cook Special meals

This Independence day, one of the best ways for family bonding is by indulging in the best of home cooked foods. Husbands try your hand in the kitchen and help your wife make a special Independence day meal. You can also try baking a cake with the National flag on it!
