We introduced him to the world of storytelling by reading out to him, igniting his imagination and curiosity. Despite not yet knowing how to read, he was captivated by the narratives and the worlds they opened up for him. What made this experience truly special was hearing him share his imaginative versions of these tales with his little year-old sister. Witnessing the magic of books ignite his creativity and bring sibling bonding to life has been the most exhilarating experience” Sakshi Vohra, Associate Director at KPMG Global Services.

This has been a continuous process to enable better understanding of others’ needs and how he should react to them. It gives us great satisfaction when Wrishik studies without our support, especially when someone in the family is unwell and needs attention or when he willingly offers his month’s supplies of candies to an NGO. Even more surprising was when he took us to the community park one evening and made a cosy bed for a newborn stray puppy within our residential block — with his favourite pillow and blanket” Reejong Ghosh, Program Head, Healthcare Finance Clix Capital Services Pvt. Ltd

An additional challenge within our household was when my husband took on a new assignment overseas in the middle of our son’s academic year. Our son Mrigank (class XII) is a responsible teen. However, being responsible is often misunderstood as shying away from expressing vulnerabilities. As a family we articulate our emotional vulnerabilities to each other instead of trying to brave it all with a straight face. The best learning that we shared with our son this year is that it is important to acknowledge and articulate vulnerabilities in order to manage and overcome them” Dr. Indrani Mukherjee, Anthropologist.

With this in mind, I enrolled my daughter Kavya Garg(class VII) in the Scholastic Writers Academy program last summer. It was a ten-day workshop on short story writing. The idea, the theme, the content and language were all left to her providing a sense of ownership and creativity. My daughter wrote the story independently, with guidance from her mentor, and minimal feedback from family. Inspired, her enthusiastic grandfather also wrote a few short stories of his own. The two had a great time exchanging notes. Scholastic supported the multiple rounds of editing, designing and now a book has been published” Nidhi Vasishta, Managing Director. PwC India.
