🎒 Getting ready
A mela has come to town, and Nita and Radha are excited. Dadiji says her legs hurt, but she agrees to join after the family promises to take care of her. They fill their water bottles and pack a special bag.
🚌 On the way
Neighbours Sneha and Rohit come along. Nita holds Dadiji’s hand to the bus stop, and the family watches the traffic carefully. In the bus, Dadiji sits on a reserved seat and the children are told to sit properly.
🎪 At the mela ground
At the entrance, the family finds a map, an ambulance, a police jeep, a fire engine and a Lost and Found booth. Mohan Chacha and Rohit bring a wheelchair for Dadiji.
🎠 Fun at the stalls
The children buy toys and bangles, ride the merry-go-round and the giant wheel and watch a magic show.

Mohan Chacha asks everyone to wash their hands. They enjoy gol gappas, chaat, chhole kulche, jalebis with rabri and kulfi, and drop the waste in a dustbin.
