Indian Comic books for children

Remember reading @amarchitrakatha books extensively as kids?  Somehow this generation of kids are not much into reading these kind of Indian comics based on our country's religion, legends, mythology and historical figures. 


The other day when we got an opportunity to visit a book store after ages, I saw Little Biryani picking up three of the books from the mentioned publisher. On asking she said, "Maa I have often heard you talking about tales from Amar Chitra Katha and so I thought of giving it a try." On returning home she finished all three books in a day as she loved the concept of the comic strips and the pictures which are used to narrate the stories. Isn't it a great feeling to see the kids liking something which is not only part of our growing up years, also something which  informs them of our brilliant culture and history in such simple yet elaborate manner! 

Do try buying #amarchitrakatha books for your little one next time. Do let us know about your experience ☺️

How do you deal with Grumpy Child in public?


So how do you deal with the grumpy kid in public? 

Do you chide them or you just ignore them. Do you leave it to them to handle or you run to them for help? 

Every child has his or her own way to act in public. Sometimes a gregarious kid can also turn grumpy and it is necessary that we give them the space. Chiding or rebuke is not a healthy way of dealing with the situation. So what can parents do? 


Remember Avoiding without knowing the reason does not help at all



Humour is something that can be used as a tool to lighten the mood of the child and get him or her to participate again



Reproaching in public should be avoided. Even if the child is behaving in the most unlikely manner. As parents we should keep that in mind. 


Distraction can be a way to deal with the situation. Children get distracted quite easily and can be used as a took to handle the situation in a lighter manner. 


You can not escape by neglecting your child in public. Make sure you connect with them in their way to make them understand. 

Ignorance is not a bliss when you handle a child especially in public. 


Talk ... The best way to deal and understand your child during such situation.

Rest in peace my friend




I was in my twenties when AD saw you for the first time and fell in love with your style. He knew that you were meant to be with me so he got you home one evening. Since then you have been a part of my life traveling to various places along with me. Although we didn't get to see each other for a few years in between because of my Motapa (weight gain) post motherhood, yet we shared a relation beyond the physicality. You always motivated me to get back in shape so that we can get back to meeting and feeling each other once again. 



Now in my forties I have to let you go my friend because age took a toll on you as well. It's time for us to bid adieu to each other with a heavy heart. Thank you for being with me since 2007 and being a part of my journey pre covid and post covid. You have been beside me throughout my journey pre and post motherhood and seen my body undergo change like never before. Yet you held on to me like a true friend.

Every time I looked at you post motherhood it was a deep sense of belonging that made me feel  some day I should be able to get you back. When o wore you after many years it was the feeling of meeting a long lost friend. The emotion was overwhelming and I loved wearing you over and over again. You made me feel good about myself... My existence...my identity. You boosted confidence in me to face the world sprightly. 
Its been a great journey so far my little sexy dress but nothing is permanent so is ours. It's time to bid adieu to you.I will miss wearing you but let me tell you something... You could be non living but this living being really liked you and it's hard to part today. Thank you for giving innumerable memories to cherish upon. The compliments I received because of you, the amorous gaze of the husband whenever I wore you, every moment was special. Thanks to the husband for bringing you home that evening. My dress rest in peace.
