Dahi Handi
a Janmashtami-related tradition where a pot of curd or butter is hung high and broken by a human pyramid, recreating young Krishna's playful attempts to reach butter.
If your child asks about Dahi Handi, tell them: "It is a word you might hear in Indian stories." Then ask them — "Where do you think you'd see Dahi Handi in real life?" It opens a small conversation about Indian culture.
