Every year, Children’s Day brings back memories of scraped knees, sticky fingers, and endless laughter. But who says it’s only for the little ones? This year, take a step back in time. Relive those golden moments, rediscover forgotten joys, and maybe share a few of your childhood favourites with your own kids.
Here are five simple, heartwarming ways to bring back the magic.
1. Rewind to Playground Fun
Before ‘10,000 steps a day,’ there was Lagori, Kho-Kho, and Hide and Seek. This Children’s Day, swap your fitness tracker for some real outdoor fun. Gather your friends or family, head to the nearest park, and play like no one’s watching.
2. Pack a Nostalgic Picnic
Plan an afternoon that feels like a page from your school days. Pack sandwiches in butter paper, fruity drinks, and homemade sweets. Head to a park, spread out a mat, and share stories of school trips and stolen lunch breaks. For your kids, it’s a picnic; for you, it’s a time capsule.
3. Recreate a Classic Tiffin Moment
The best part of school was always opening that tiffin box and guessing what Mom had packed and eyeing everyone else’s lunch. Those were simpler days, full of homemade treats that could light up an entire classroom: from jam-smeared sandwiches and crispy bhakarwadi to soft rotis rolled with sugar or ghee.
This Children’s Day, relive that warmth with Noice’s range of nostalgic bites such as crunchy chikkis, peanut butter bites, rice crispy chocolate bars, mango jam slices, and mango juice with coco jelly. All the comfort, all the love – now just an Instamart order away.
4. Movie Marathon, the 2000s Way
End the night (or recover from it) with a movie binge that hits right in the feels with picks like Home Alone, Koi Mil Gaya, Harry Potter, Kung Fu Panda, or Stuart Little. Set up cosy blankets, pour yourself a fruity drink, and laugh at the same jokes that once had you rolling on the floor.
5. Revive a Forgotten Hobby
You can draw, doodle, or make paper boats – whatever you choose. Once you start, hours will fly by. These simple acts reconnect you to a time when joy didn’t need a reason. This Children’s Day, let yourself play again. Not just for nostalgia’s sake, but to remember how light life can feel when you just let go.
Because your inner child never really grew up. They’ve just been waiting for a day like this. A day to pause, play, and pass on the joy that once made your world brighter.
