Are you ready to celebrate the Hindu festival of Holi? Take the quiz to find out how much you know!

It's a Hindu festival that's celebrated by millions of people every year. It's a festival that focuses on love, spring and beautiful colours. It also points to the Hindu god Krishna and the legend of Holika and Prahlad - Hindus celebrate the overpowering of good versus evil.

People throw grains, popcorn, coconut and lots of other yummy things onto bonfires together on the first night of Holi. 

Then comes the fun festival of paint-throwing the next day. It's fun for everyone, Hindus fill the streets, rubbing and throwing paint and coloured water around, making a very beautiful scene!
