In their little home near the mountains in Chakrata, Uttarakhand, Rekha kneads dough for rotis while her two boys play alongside. They shape the dough into  boats, animals and flying objects while their mum patiently asks questions about what they have made gently nudging them to think, understand and connect.   

"Maine ye tareeka Dost ke calls se jaana tha. Isse bache jaldi seekh jaate hain aur unko mazaa bhi aata hai," she shares.
(I learned this from Dost calls—children learn quickly this way, and they have fun too!).

— Rekha, Mother of a 3-year old, Chakrata
