Raksha Bandhan 2024: Nostalgic childhood moments to recreate on Rakhi

Maggi night

Welcome Raksha Bandhan by showing your sneaky partner-in-crime synergy with your sibling. Satiate your midnight cravings by whipping up a steaming bowl of mouth-watering Maggi with your sibling. Oh, and don’t forget to squabble over the water content of Maggi- whether it’s soupy or dry. And be careful and don't let your parents catch you red-handed. However old you may be, you and your siblings are still little children to your parents, so the midnight yelling won’t be any decibel lower.

Storytelling

Remember how your sibling would purposefully narrate the goriest horror stories before bedtime or spook you with tales of urban legends? Don the storyteller’s hat by draping a white bedsheet over yourselves and huddling together in the dim light of a flashlight. Recount your scary encounters with paranormal creatures or even people in your life, as they can be just as frightening. Feel free to make up and improvise if you’re feeling creative.

Board games

Nothing is as cathartic as the feuds over UNO, monopoly, or Ludo. Revive the childhood competitive spirit, and recreate those epic game nights. Whether you’re flinging the ludo board over your gutted defeat or forming a secret alliance by putting aside your rivalry, nothing feels more nostalgic than board game nights.

Badminton

Your sibling’s evil smirk when the shuttlecock smashes into you as you threaten to stop the match is unforgettable. Experience how competitive your siblings can get during badminton matches, where every fiery serve and smash feels like a battle cry. Don’t forget to cry foul when your sibling makes up rules on the spot.

Pillow fight

Pillow fight is a battlefield of feathers and pillows as you smack each other and ambush with pillows. Whether it ends in a truce or a run to snitch to mother, the pillow fight is the epitome of the ultimate sibling fun. It’s a classic and simple yet timeless way to relive those carefree and fun moments, reminding you that no matter how old you get, you always find your inner child with your sibling by your side.
