Hi, Uttara!
Have been a lurker here – don’t think I have commented. Love your blog – esp. the music gyan and the books for kids and the alternative schools….well, a lot of stuff you have here. Had to comment on Vatsalyam – my kids have listened to this every day when they were tiny. Like a month and above.
This is how we made the move out of our room a super stress less. And how they got rooted into music being a daily thing. Now they listen to so many kinds of music – from Bharatiyar songs to Stereolab and classical Indian and western…they actually ask for the yellow cd by Sting and can sing RD Burman songs. And I credit it all to Vatsalyam. A sister cd to this is called Salokyam. Also a good one but this one is a rockstar in my opinion. Have gifted it to several people as new born gifts.
I hope we move to Bangalore some day and since I know only about plants that grow in England I will rely on the gardening gyan on your blog!
I was thinking of doing a post on Salokyam as well. Thanks for reminding me!
Does your son learn Tabla?
Thanks.
Yes, he is really into tabla. Even practices and all. Did a recent post on that. Tabla was the activity that kept us all sane at one point.
Please come over – I gift plants too!
I thought I had read something about him learning tabla-
that’s great.
It will be some years before we are back-hope you are still in Bang then so I can take advantage of your plant gifts
Keep reminding myself to stock up on Vatsalyam for gifts to others. Son absolutely drifts off to its melodies. Will check out Salokyam…thanks Sangi n Uttara!
