Bhai Dooj 2019: THESE are the quirky ways to celebrate the festival with your siblings

Bhai Dooj is the celebration of love shared between siblings, especially a brother and sister. Usually a family event, the ritualistic tika is adorned on the forehead of the brother as a mark of his sister’s love. The day is celebrated with the exchange of gifts, feeding each other sweets, indulging in lavish meals and enjoying the company of the family! But, have you ever wondered how you can make the day more fun? Here are a few ways to renew your bond with your sibling and have a great time along the way!

Go on a road trip

A long drive can fix everything. Well, almost everything! Gather your siblings and set off on a long drive. This is a great way to reconnect, visit a new place and have fun without any restrictions. Come up with a great playlist to listen on the drive and we promise you the road trip will be a memory to cherish forever!

Volunteer at an animal shelter

Are you and your siblings great animal lovers? Head to the nearest animal shelter and sign up to volunteer for the day. You will have an amazing time caring and looking after your furry friends. Your siblings may end up really enjoying the day and sign up for regular volunteering! Apart from being a lot of fun, this is also a noble way to celebrate the festival!

Paintball session

What’s more fun than the company of your beloved siblings? A paintball session! Paintball clubs are popping up everywhere and it seems like a good idea to visit one. Revisit your childhood with paintball and have a great time. Your siblings will be extra delighted for this one!

Organise a barbecue

Any festival is all about food. But that doesn’t mean all you have to eat is Indian food and sweets. Set up a barbecue station in the backyard and grill your favourite meats and vegetables for dinner. Accompany the barbecue dinner with music, drinks and a game night. Cooking together is one of the best ways to bond with your siblings!
