The act of gifting need not necessarily always involve giving out something tangible. Especially, in case of children, it can be an activity or a gesture that will lead to instilling good habits in them that will stay with them for a long time and even change their way of thinking.

Here is a unique opportunity for parents in New Delhi to give their children something beyond toys and other gift articles. We are referring to a children’s book & literature festival that is set to take place in the next few days in the capital city.

The festival is inspired by Hay-on-Wye, a unique first Book Town, lies on the border between Wales and England. One of the major annual events for Hay is the ‘Hay Festival’. Book lovers can visit this unparalleled book town, which is now a major tourist attraction. Taking a cue from the book town and its festival, literary enthusiasts in New Delhi has come up with a unique event for children. 

“I was indeed intrigued by the idea of a festival like. As I learnt more about it, I wanted to do something similar but for children,” informed Swati Roy, Eureka Children’s Bookstore co-owner and publisher of a magazine for children. M. Venkatesh, Anita Roy, Jo Williams; Anushka Ravishankar, Manisha Chaudhry of Pratham Books, Subhadra Sen Gupta and Swati Roy the organizers of the Bookaroo Children’s Literature Festival 2008.

The children’s literature festival will act as a platform for inculcating reading habits in children. Children’s books will be viewed as gorgeous, bouncy trampolines to encourage their creativity.

It’s ideal to hold your little champ’s study gears. Now, Tom and Jerry Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck are there to accompany children to the classroom, bringing smiles on their faces.

A soft toy-like bag will be perfect for nursery going children or those in junior or senior KG. The catchy colored teddy bear bags will sure make going to school a pleasurable exercise for children and draw them towards studies as well. Check that the fur used is of good material and is soft to touch and feel.
An off white school or college backpack will make a more sober choice. Adjustable straps at both the sides for adjusting the width of the bag will make it easier to sling around and carry. Adjustable straps at the bottom will help adjust the width of the base. The smaller padded back section can easily hold files, stationery, etc.
When buying a bag, check the quality of the zip. Get one in bright colors to cheer up the children. Also, ensure it is spacious enough to carry their school gears like books, notebooks, pen holder and pencil box. It should have a separate pocket to carry the lunch box. Adjustable straps and a haul hook for easy lifting are other features to look for. The bag should have enough front pockets, and it shouldn’t be too heavy.
