Hi! We are Indian Fables and Musings.
Hi! I am Nidhi. I am a mom of two boys who are my biggest inspiration and first critics for every book and activity I share. Outside of creating content, I enjoy biking, cooking, and exploring new ways to make Indian culture a fun part of daily life.
Our Mission
Indian Fables and Musings helps parents raise children connected to Indian culture through Books, Stories, and Hindi learning resources.
About Indian Fables and Musings
When my older son turned four, I had one big dream: I wanted him to grow up speaking Hindi, hearing the same stories I grew up with, and feeling the joy of celebrating Indian festivals the way I had as a child in India.
But when I looked around, I found almost nothing to help me. There were barely any Hindi learning resources, no easy way to teach culture through stories, and very few books that reflected Indian kids, Indian festivals, or the richness of our traditions.
I realized then that if I wanted to pass on these stories to my son, I would have to start creating them myself.
Growing up in India, culture was everywhere. Festivals lit up our homes, grandparents told us stories that carried wisdom and laughter, and traditions were part of our daily rhythm.
Now, living far away, I want my kids to feel that same connection — to know who they are and where they come from.
That’s why I created Indian Fables and Musings: a space for parents like me, who want their children to stay rooted in Indian culture while growing up outside India.
Here, you’ll find curated book lists (so you don’t have to hunt endlessly for stories about Indian festivals, history, or characters your kids can see themselves in), printables and resources to make Hindi learning fun and approachable, and stories and blog posts that bring alive the magic of our traditions.
I hope that when you land here, you feel a sense of relief and excitement — that “Yes, I found it!” moment. That you know you’re not alone, and that you now have a collection of resources to help your kids connect with their roots in meaningful and joyful ways.
I’m so glad you’re here. Welcome to Indian Fables and Musings — where stories, culture, and learning come together for the next generation.
