Description:

Shishu Vihar is a safe and nurturing space for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers to begin their Bala Vihar journey.

This is a parent-and-child class, designed to foster connection, shared learning, and joyful exploration.

The curriculum offers:

  • A gentle and joyful introduction to the Gods and Goddesses in the Hindu tradition
  • Beloved Hindu childhood stories shared in a playful and engaging way
  • Cultural learning through songs (inspired by familiar rhymes), hymns and chants, along with arts and crafts and fun games

Children (with their parents) will begin to build a joyful connection to Hindu culture, stories, and values in a warm, nurturing environment.
