Hey parents, I’m experimenting with stories with sounds that children may love, creating an immersive, warm, and unforgettable experience. I’d love to see how it works for your little ones!
If you have a few minutes, here’s a little bundle:
Stories With Sounds
I’d really appreciate your thoughts—what works, what doesn’t, and what your child enjoys the most.

Yes! I think we can bring it back in small ways— like bedtime routines, weekend story circles, or even 10 mins of read-aloud can bring back the habit.
And most importantly for kids it’s always show, not tell—if we read and surround ourselves with books, they’ll follow. I’d love to know what’s working in your homes?

Totally agree with you, Vidhya. Any ideas on how we can bring it back?
Vidhya Arjunan Sep 12, 2025
Yes mam. Also, I strongly feel we should tell or read stories to kids rather than just hand them in video format. A story isn’t fixed—100 kids will imagine 100 different versions. Why stop that imagination by giving them one ready-made version? I’m not sure how many homes still do this, but maybe we need to bring it back—so kids fall in love with stories and reading as a whole.

Great question, Vidhya. Gets us thinking.
