Independence Day 2023: As the 77th Independence Day is around the corner, people are already preparing for the celebrations. Independence Day is a time to honor and celebrate the freedom of our nation. One of the most remarkable celebrations is the one organised in schools, colleges, and universities. Talking about kids, we surely remember those days when all of us at some point of time participated in different functions during the Independence Day celebrations in our school. We performed in plays, danced to patriotic songs, and gave speeches while wearing our favourite freedom fighter costume.
Fancy dress competitions are a great opportunity to teach kids about our courageous freedom fighters as they take part in various activities during the Independence Day Celebrations. Children get a wonderful opportunity to learn about the inspiring freedom warriors who selflessly battled for our country’s freedom against the Britishers. By dressing up, children not only show off their artistic abilities but also learn the virtues of bravery, selflessness, and patriotism.
The ultimate warrior of India, girls can carry the courage and bravery of the heroic Rani Lakshmibai. She serves as an example of bravery and tenacity to all around her while carrying a sword and shield and wearing a regal saree-like outfit.
Dress your girl like Sarojini Naidu as an homage to the Nightingale of India. With a book of poems in her hand and a simple yet exquisite saree, she embodies the spirit of the liberation movement via her significant literary achievements.
Boys might dress like the Father of the Nation by pairing the traditional white dhoti and rimless glasses. They can also represent Gandhi’s nonviolent and Satyagraha beliefs by carrying a spinning wheel (charkha).
You can make your child wear a white kurta-pajama, a red turban, and a wooden lathi for portraying the gallant Bhagat Singh. His willingness to give up all to fight for India’s freedom is symbolised by this costume.
A military-inspired outfit with a nehru hat and a badge to honour the brave Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose. This outfit pays tribute to his unwavering fight for liberation and the founding of the Indian National Army.
Boys might dress in a khadi kurta, dhoti, and fake moustache to emulate the daring Chandrashekhar Azad. They may embody the spirit of Azad’s commitment to the liberation movement by carrying a toy gun.
You can find the dresses at your nearest costume stores. Make your child feel proud about the country’s history and let us remember the heroes who made it possible as we proudly and wholeheartedly celebrate our independence. Jai Hind!
