So let’s not break their routines of food, hygiene and play time. So take a break, and spend time with your little one.
Most important part is to wear a right kind of clothing and choose the right thing for your babies. Stick to cotton is what we suggest. Though most parents love to dress their babies in fancy outfits, take special precautions that the clothes like chunri, lehnga, long kurtis et car all tagged up not to swirl on diyas and candles.
Keep all the crackers and fireworks to an area where little ones can enjoy the scene and not get hurt. Select the fireworks beforehand, the ones that don’t get too loud or dangerous for the babies.
Do not feed your baby anything that might not be hygienic or up to the standards. It's great to stick to dry fruits if nothing else is available.

Always keep a bucket of water, a blanket and suggested medications for home use to counter any mild burns.
