We haven't lived in India for years...but it's home. We maintain deep cultural ties through language, rituals, and shared history. We took our roots for granted ... until we had kids.

 

The little ones find it hard to relate to our language and culture because they don't hear it, see it, or experience it daily. We tried books, music, toys; everything felt old-school, a bit tacky, and irrelevant to our everyday lives. Formal tutoring? Total chore. 

​​​​

So... Moli.Boli. 

We’re recrafting those early steps of language discovery. We're redesigning  images, words, objects, and physical experiences to tell the stories of where we come from. These retellings in our home languages enable learning by osmosis —  small nudges at home, in the car, and at bedtime. Forget screens, dopamine hits, even tutors. We're seeding simple, physical intimacy with Indian languages by creating playful discovery for curious little hearts, minds, and hands​​​​.

​

A strong cultural identity will help our kids understand where they come from. Strong roots will help them shape where they want to go -- on their terms.
