Come, Eid, Eidi is something that gives you an extra hit of excitement! Yes, the coveted gift(or even better, money! cha-ching!) that comes with the joyous occasion of Eid-al-Fitr. Eidi is not just about excitement and anticipation but, sometimes, hilarious mishaps in many Indian households. For children, especially, the prospect of receiving this token of generosity is enough to keep them on their best behaviour throughout the month of Ramadan. Eidi Gift Ideas for Kids This Eid al-Fitr 2024: Envelopes, Toys or Books – Choose Impressive Gifts for Eidi on the Significant Festival.

The wait for Eidi begins as soon as the first sighting of the moon signals the end of Ramadan. Children, with their wide-eyed enthusiasm, eagerly line up to receive their envelopes of money from elders. The amount of Eidi often becomes a topic of discussion and comparison among kids, with each one trying to outdo the other with the size of their haul.

However, the journey to receiving Eidi is not always smooth sailing. Some children resort to elaborate tactics to impress their elders, from helping with household chores to reciting verses from the Quran. Others employ the classic strategy of dropping subtle hints about their financial needs and aspirations, hoping to sway the decision in their favour.

The excitement of receiving Eidi is not limited to children; adults too eagerly anticipate this tradition. For many, Eidi is a way to relive their own childhood memories and connect with younger family members. Sometimes, it's not all fun and games. Yes! It's also an opportunity to spread joy and blessings within the community, fostering a sense of togetherness and generosity.

Of course, no discussion about Eidi is complete without mentioning the hilarious memes and jokes that flood social media during this time. From memes about the lengths children go to in order to maximize their Eidi earnings to jokes about the inevitable disappointment of receiving a smaller amount than expected, these humorous takes on the tradition add an extra layer of fun to the festivities. If your mom too has stolen your Eidis in childhood, these memes will have you ROFL.
