Sowmya Ravindranath
A unique educational experiment where a library becomes a museum – a vibrant place that sparks children’s curiosity and creativity. Sowmya Ravindranath writes about how this journey inculcated a deep appreciation for history, art, and literature among young minds.
Nupur Hukmani
On a bright Sunday afternoon, Nupur Hukmani took a virtual tour of a museum. What followed was a 3D journey from the comfort of her home, where she experienced some of the oldest rocks on earth to fossils and even tools of civilization! Whether you are a child, a parent, an older sibling, or an educator, it is a memorable and enriching experience that has a lot in store for everyone!
Menaka Raman
Stories are the best ways to connect with people. For children’s author Menaka Raman, the best bit of writing books is that she gets to take them to schools and libraries and read to young children there. Did a joke she added the last minute land well with her readers? How did children react to the protagonist’s situation? What would they do in a similar situation? It is through these interactions that Menaka finds out if she has touched a chord with her book.

Anjali Noronha
January is the birth month of two extraordinary women teachers – Savitribai Phule and Fatima Sheikh – who worked to uplift the downtrodden despite belonging to the less privileged sections of the society themselves. At a time when educating girls was shunned in society, these women braved insult, abuse, and atrocities to teach girls from the deprived communities.
Sushmita Aripirala
Schools, today, are buildings that are cut off from their neighbourhoods? Or, dynamic hubs that catalyze positive change in their surroundings?
Anindita Bhattacharya
The need to belong has implications on our physical and mental health. A lack of belonging can cause depression or anti-social behaviour.
