Pustak Khidki

Open books lead to open minds!

Through this initiative, the ChikuPiku foundation plans to donate ChikuPiku books along with the hanging bookshelves that can act as portable libraries in the classrooms and Anganwadi centres.
This will foster the reading culture and encourage children to spend more time with books, promoting shared reading and learning.

What is Pustak Khidki?

Pustak Khidki

A portable bookshelf that can be hung at an appropriate height for children in the classrooms, homes, day care centers etc.
It is a beautifully designed product to make the books visible, accessible and inviting for children and it also gives visual cues to teachers to include books in their daily activities.

Small Pustak Khidki has six pockets and each pocket can hold 2-3 small books in them. Big Pustak Khidaki has eight big pockets and holds 3-4 books in each pocket.

What is the Purpose?

  • Inducing self-motivation in preschool children to read more books.

  • Help to increase the vocabulary and understanding in preschool children through active use of books and storytelling.

  • Assist teachers to include books in their daily activities by installing easy to handle bookshelves in the classrooms.

  • Create awareness about multiple intelligences in teachers and give opportunities to children to explore and enhance those intelligences through activities and stories from ChikuPiku books.
