Jagannath
a form of Lord Vishnu worshipped mainly in Odisha, known for his round eyes and unfinished arms, and the massive chariot festival held in his honour.
If your child asks about Jagannath, tell them: "It is a word you might hear in Indian stories." Then ask them — "Where do you think you'd see Jagannath in real life?" It opens a small conversation about Indian culture.
