b. What kind of education do your kids receive about Hinduism?

Kids mostly receive education on festivals like Diwali and Holi, chanting daily slokas, doing Arti and attending a local temple on special religious occasions.
Children receive education about Hinduism mainly through their parents (first guru) and temples. Nowadays, parents try to teach Hinduism in a practical way so that children understand the purpose and meaning behind it and then relate and apply it in their life (for example, character building). Temples offer educational programs such as balvihar classes (language and cultural).

Many parents have a prayer altar at home to pray or worship together daily. Other more committed parents teach them devotional song, chanting, reading from holy books, performing yoga and meditation.
