    Kolam is a great culture in Tamilnadu. The Kolam is not only popular in the Tamilnadu but also in other states in India. But in Tamilnadu the greatness of the Kolam is that the flour that is used for drawing Kolam in front of the house is the Rice flour. There are many points about the significance and the greatness of the Kolam in Tamilnadu. The Kolam can also be told as one of the hobby of the housewife in the Tamilnadu. Kolam is drawn in front of the house in the early morning with the freshness of the morning breath. This makes the Human body active for the whole day.

It is also believed that the Kolam design is an offering to the God. So it can also be told that the Kolam is the offering that is done to the God. There is a fact behind the preparation of the Kolam powder. The Kolam powder has to be prepared in such a way that it should not be very nice also.

    The actual significance of making the Kolam design in the Rice flour is that the kolam powder will be a food for the ants and the small insects. When you perform the kolam construction in the sand floor after cleaning the floor, you can find that the ants will be in a queue busy taking the rice flour particles to their holes. This is a great thing to see. For this purpose the Kolam powder is made with the help of the Rice flour. There are also many other species that take the kolam powder as the food.
