Navratri is a celebration of colours, devotion, and joy. Every day of the festival is marked by a different colour, symbolising unique virtues and energies. Just as we adorn our homes, outfits, and decor with these vibrant hues, toys too can reflect the festive spirit. Traditional Indian Toys, with their nostalgic charm and cultural connection, beautifully complement the colourful essence of Navratri.
At Desi Toys, we bring alive the magic of heritage play through our wide collection of Indian toys for kids and grown-ups alike. Each toy is handcrafted with love, designed to be safe, sustainable, and deeply rooted in our culture. This Navratri, let’s see how our classic games and toys match the hues of the festival:
Yellow – Joy and Positivity: Lagori Set
The bright yellow of Navratri symbolises positivity and energy. Our Lagori set (also known as Seven Stones) perfectly matches this vibe. Painted in cheerful colours, this traditional outdoor game is a fun way to bring family and friends together, echoing the joy that Navratri brings.
Green – Harmony and Growth: GiliDanda
Green stands for growth and harmony. What better match than the GiliDanda, a game that takes us back to the green open fields where it was played? This classic Indian toy not only reflects tradition but also reminds us of the carefree childhood moments spent in nature.
Grey – Balance and Strength: Steam Toy Boat
Grey may seem understated, but it symbolises balance and resilience. The Tin Steam Toy Boat from Desi Toys is the perfect fit. With its shiny metallic body and fascinating movement powered by steam, it adds both nostalgia and wonder, keeping alive the strength of traditional craftsmanship.
Orange – Energy and Enthusiasm: Flash Cards Set
Orange radiates enthusiasm and creativity. Our Flash Cards set for kids is designed in vibrant colours, making learning fun and interactive. They inspire curiosity, aligning beautifully with the spirit of this festive shade.
Blue – Divine Energy: Spinning Top
The colour blue represents calmness and divine energy. The timeless wooden Spinning Top, painted in bright blues and other shades, is a toy that has fascinated generations. Watching it spin endlessly is as meditative as it is joyful.
Red – Passion and Power: Tin Wind-Up Car
Red, the colour of passion and vibrancy, resonates perfectly with the Tin Wind-up Car. Its glossy finish and cheerful colours bring alive the festive playfulness. This mechanical marvel showcases how traditional Indian toys can still spark excitement in the digital age.
