Dashain is mainly celebrated by Nepali Hindu people. People celebrate this festival happily with their family and relatives. We had 15 days of holidays at my school during Dashain. During Dashain, I went to the market with my parents and bought new clothes: a jacket, sweater, jeans pants, and shoes. They were all beautiful. It suited me a lot. I flew kites. I enjoyed flying kites when it was very high in the sky. My grandfather prepared a swing for me at home. I was so excited, I played cards with my father. I went to 11 different Bhagavati temples. It took a whole day. I ate different kinds of delicious foods. They were tasty. On Mahanavami, we worshipped scooter and my bicycle. On that day, it was my father’s birthday. My mother and I baked a cake at home. The main day of Dashain is Dashami. I put Tika and Jamara from my elders and got blessings. I put Tika and Jamara to my little brother Ayan. I was so happy to put him tika. After this day, I went to my relatives' houses to put tika. It was so much fun to visit different places and meet all the relatives. I collected Rs 8200 as a gift. On the last day of Dashain, we worshiped Goddess Durga. It was a wonderful Dashain.
