Rakshabandhan Celebrations

Rakshabandhan Celebrations

I like the way Rakshabandhan is celebrated in our country. This festival makes the love of sisters and brothers grow. On this day sisters tie ‘rakhi’ on their brothers’ wrists while praying for their long life. The brothers give their sisters money or gifts and promise to look after them. My mother makes tasty sweets for us to eat. I have one real brother and five cousin brothers. So I wait for this celebration to collect a lot of money from all of them !
