You might like to look at our themes on Christmas and Celebrations too. Many cultures also celebrate Diwali. Resources for Diwali can also be found in the recent theme on India.
Puppets and Masks are often associated with festivals and celebrations, so this is a great time to look at an inquires into the many different types.
