Kaag Tihar
- Kaag tihar is the first day of Tihar. I gave some delicious food to crow and worship the crow.
Kukur Tihar
- Kukur tihar is the second day of Tihar. I worship my home dog at morning by offering tika, delicious food, and malas.
Laxmi Puja
- Laxmi Puja is the third day of Tihar. This day at morning I took bath and worship cow by offering malas, food and tika. On that day I helped my Mom to clean the house. Then I decorated my house with bright rows of lamps and garlands. I also made rangoli at my home. Then I placed candles and diyos. Many people came at my home to play deusi and bhailo. I enjoyed seeing them while playing deusi and bhailo. They dance amd sing. I was very happy at that time. I offered them some amount of money too.
Govardhan Puja

Bhai Tika
- Bhai Tika is the fifth day of Tihar. On this day, I wake up early in the morning and took bath. Then I helped my Mom to cooked. After cooking food, I started to wrapped some gifts for my brothers. Then I started to be ready. At 11:55 I offer tika to my brothers and wish for their long life and prosperity. Then have some delicious food. I also watch Nepali movie at YouTube and enjoy watching the movie.
The festival encourages us to remove the darkness of mind, and look for brightness in life. My experience of Tihar was memorable and joyful.
