The story what i have heard is after playing holi with the sakhas(friends) Lord krsna was tired n he comes n sits in yashodamaiyas lap n yashodamaiya just moves her lap( Thakurji ne yashodamaiya khola ma dholeve che) is the story, n thakurji wants to rest.Thakurji is given the bhog of sweets.

You may be right youginiben
But the story what I have heard is
Once Vrushbhanji(father of shree radhaji)refused for Vivah of radhaji wiht THKORJI, and disregarded Nand bava, but because of Shree radhaji he called back Thakorji .
at that time shree thakorji told him to put both radhaji and thakorji in one dol(bucket) and than swing it like a swing.
from that day dolotsav is celebrated.
do correct me
