Our foundational series—Giggle & Grow (Age 3 to 6 years)—incorporates a robust
foundation of Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE) programme. This series
aims to provide children with a comprehensive, engaging, and age-appropriate learning
experience as they embark on their educational journey.
The curriculum is specially created to cater to the developmental needs of children

between the ages of 3 to 6 years. It utilises various domains such as early literacy and
numeracy, as well as physical, motor, cognitive, socio-emotional, ethical, and cultural/
artistic development among young learners. The recent scientific understanding of
childhood development along with the ancient Indian knowledge of Panchakoshas have
been taken into consideration while creating the series.
Each book in the series comprises engaging elements such as:

_ Fun, interactive worksheets that reinforce learning concepts through drawing,
colouring, and simple exercises.

_ Utilising songs to introduce basic concepts such as numbers, colours, shapes, etc.
_ Hands-on do-it-yourself (DIY) activities that encourage creativity and fine motor
skills

_ Age-appropriate moral stories that teach empathy, teamwork, respect, and other
essential life values

_ Clear and concise step-by-step pedagogy designed to guide teachers and parents,
with clear learning objectives and outcomes of every lesson

_ Integrated curriculum that combines topics from different subjects (such as
Language, Maths, General Awareness, etc.) to create a holistic and interconnected

learning experience
_ Playful rhymes to develop language skills and make learning enjoyable

_ Fun sticker pages to inspire and motivate children to interact with the book

_ Art-integrated activities to encourage children to express themselves while
reinforcing key concepts

The series targets the development of knowledge, skills, and behaviour in children
through these series of activities.
We invite you to join your little ones on this delightful learning journey, celebrating
the joy of discovery across languages and subjects. Together, let’s cultivate a world of
knowledge and creativity!
