About us
We tell stories! Storytelling is often an underestimated tool which has a potential of creating an immense impact especially on young minds. We are trying to bring trees, animals, rivers, oceans, scientists, artists, magic, fantasies, good habits, traditions, cultures and different worlds into children’s hands. We introduce good content to them through our initiatives - Pustak Khidki, Anubhav Khidki and Marathi Pustakalay.

“लोककलांचे अनुभव”
महाराष्ट् कल्चरल सेंटर च्या थिएटर इन एज्युकेशन या उपक्रमाअंतर्गत होय महाराजाचा प्रयोग या शाळेत झाला. सुमारे 200 मुलींनी या कार्यक्रमाचा आनंद घेतला. मोठ्या उत्साहाने मुलींनी कार्यक्रमाला दाद दिली. शाळेचे शिक्षक आणि कर्मचारी वर्ग या कार्यक्रमाला उपस्थित होते. त्यांनी लोककला मुलांपर्यंत पोहचवल्याबद्दल चिकूपिकू चे आभार मानले.
“पुस्तक खिडकी आम्ही वापरतो ”
पुस्तक खिडकी आम्ही अंगणवाडी मध्ये लावली आहे. मुलं चिकूपिकूची पुस्तकं हाताळतात, मुलांना खूप आवडतात. गोष्टी खूप छान आहेत.
“पुस्तक खिडकीमुळे वाचनाची सुरुवात ”
िकू पिकू पुस्तक खिडकीमुळे मुलांना वाचनाची खरंच आवड निर्माण झाली आहे. आत्तापर्यंत खेड्यापाड्यातल्या अंगणवाड्यांमध्ये पुस्तक अंगणवाडीमध्ये मुलांना वाचण्यासाठी असावीत हा कन्सेप्टच नव्हता. पण आपल्या पुस्तक खिडकीच्या उपक्रमामुळे अंगणवाडी सेविका व पालकांना या वयोगटातील मुलांना सुद्धा पुस्तक वाचायला द्यावीत ही संकल्पना यांच्यामध्ये रुजली आहे. मुलेही या पुस्तक खिडकीमुळे खूप खुश आहेत.
