Pair our vibrant books with matching plush toys and watch ordinary story time turn magical. When your child holds Baby Ganesh while learning how he broke his tusk, these stories come alive.
The days of overwhelming tales are over. Our books feature popular Hindu deities like Shiva, Krishna, and Durga in reimagined ways. The rhyming verses make these ancient tales easy for kids to remember and repeat.
Each book weaves important lessons into engaging stories—from mindful ways to managing feelings with "Shiva's Magic Mantra," to recognizing our unique talents in "Laxmi's Diwali Dream Team." These aren't just stories; they're tools that help raise kind, confident children who understand their cultural roots.
Struggling to explain the significance behind Hindu festivals? Our books provide the perfect way to help children understand holidays like Diwali, Navratri, and Raksha Bandhan. Our stories put a fresh, fun spin on these celebrations and explain the 'why' behind them in ways kids can understand.
Kids should see their culture reflected in the stories they read while exploring the wider world, too. Our books help Hindu children connect with their roots while fitting perfectly alongside Dr. Seuss or Peppa Pig.
★★★★★I’m not going to lie, I cried when I read this book to my children. It reminded me of the lessons my nana (grandfather) taught me growing up. It is so beautifully done- from the message it imparts to the artistry- thank you so much for bringing this and all your other books into our (and our kids’) lives.

Book: Shiva's Magic Mantra
★★★★★This story was so fun to read to my 4 year old son! The rhyming verses made the story so lyrical! The illustrations are child friendly and engaging. And I love that Durga Devi was so calm when being mocked for being a girl!! Such a special and fun way to learn about the beautiful stories of our heritage!

★★★★★This is genius! I took these books into my son’s kindergarten class and they were a hit. He kept some pages for our family Diwali, and I can’t explain to you how much our family loved the concept. So well done!

Rangoli With Stickers: Diwali Activity Book
★★★★★My 4 year old son and I have read "The Curious Case of Krishna" a few times now. Yesterday, we read it in my mom's presence and I could see her smiling the entire time. I have such fond memories of hearing stories about Kahnaiya from my grandma and reading this book all together sparked memories for all of us. I love the poetic verses and the sweet illustrations. In this book, I was able to see all the light-hearted depictions of Krishna -- the butter thief illustrations made us all laugh. Thank you for helping me to pass on these stories to the next generation!

★★★★★We have all the books and this is definitely the kids favorite. Every time they have big feelings - they close their eyes and say “Om Namasivayam” five times..

★★★★★We love our Modi Toys books. We have a multicultural family and it is hard to find books and toys for our daughter that are age-appropriate for a toddler and also provide exposure to her Indian culture. Thank you for these great board book stories!

These stories make ancient wisdom accessible for families trying to preserve their heritage in today's world.
