Festivals are deeper than we remember.
“I thought I knew Makar Sankranti...
until I learned why Bhishma Pitamah waited for Uttarayan.”
NamasteABC helps children understand festivals the way they were meant to be understood.
Festivals are not isolated events.
They connect to:
- ●Seasons: harvest, spring, light
- ●Food: what is cooked and why
- ●Clothing & colours: what is worn and what it signifies
- ●Epics: stories like Bhishma Pitamah and Uttarayan
- ●Movement, dance, and music: rhythm and celebration that lift the spirit
Children learn why a festival exists, not just its name.
Stories that arrive with the season.
Right now:
- ●Makar Sankranti: Uttarayan, harvest traditions, and how it is celebrated across India and other countries under different names
- ●Republic Day: freedom and responsibility, explained gently
- ●Basant Panchami: learning, Saraswati, spring, and the beginning of Holika preparations
Stories arrive before the festival, so children understand what's happening around them.
Epics, told where they belong.
Stories from:
- ●Ramayan
- ●Mahabharat
- ●Geeta
woven naturally into festivals, seasons, and everyday questions.
Shared slowly. With pauses. The Dadi way.
A for Apple. A for Amma.
Learning begins with what feels familiar.
A is for Amma.
Amma means mother.
She is your first teacher and best friend.
Language grows from relationships.
Meaning grows from connection.
