Written by our Magic of India teacher, this book makes the journey of learning enjoyable with beautiful pictures and fun for mother and child. It’s a day filled with colour and joy. But Holi is more significant than just a single day of festivities. Over the years, stories of its origin have garnered worldwide wonder. In the stories of Narasimha, Krishna, and Holika lie morals that can nurture a positive impact on children and adults, encouraging diversity and multiculturalism. This book peeks into the colourful stories that define India’s colourful festivals. It looks at how the colours are made and the delicious tasty treats of Holi. The mythological significance of the Indian festivities is as interesting as it is celebrated. Let’s hop on to the joy ride and celebrate together as we gleefully say: “HOLI HAI! It is Holi”

I was surprised at the amount of content this book has. It is colourful and descriptive with plenty of information to keep the child engaged and thinking.
My daughter immensely enjoys her classes and all the activities Geeta organizes at Magic of India. Geeta continues to introduce them to the language and culture of India through a number of innovative sessions. We look forward to more!
Magic of India is a brilliant opportunity for Indian children in London to be in touch with their roots/origins/culture no matter which part of india they come from. Not only are the classes a perfect balance between language, culture, yoga, dance, general knowledge of India....but the teacher is absolutely magic. Her voice engages the children and mesmerises them. Both my children attend the classes and have built immense confidence in communicating in Hindi and singing songs and rhymes. I totally recommend Magic of India and now with their web classes children are in touch with the Indian culture from the comfort of their homes.
“I love Geeta's classes. My grandparents in India are so impressed by my progress that they told my mother that what she hasn't done in 11 years, Geeta has managed in 3 weeks. I am more confident about speaking Hindi already and my accent is improving too. The highlight so far has been learning the National Anthem. Thank you Geeta”
My 8 year old daughter has been learning from Geeta since two years now. The classes are fun and my daughter is able to read and write Hindi now. The best part about Geeta is that she understands that language has to be taught in conjunction with culture to fully appreciate its richness and context - towards this end, Geeta painstakingly organises all sorts of events around Indian festivals to give the kids that cultural awareness in a fun yet informative way! Thank you Geeta! I am impressed by what you do and how you do it. Keep up the good job.

Geeta has been teaching my daughter foundation-level Hindi and she has enjoyed every lesson and learnt to converse more confidently in Hindi. Her online lessons are well balanced for all age groups and levels and keep her engaged. She looks forward to all her weekly lessons.

Geeta's mission of taking Hindi language and Indian culture to the homes of the Indian diaspora living in London is highly commendable. Geeta uses the teaching methods which are prevalent in English schools and merges them with her unique teaching style which includes songs, poems, drawing, coloring, and various other innovative methods so children are engaged and interested in learning Hindi and at the same time learn about their culture. My 5-year-old daughter has picked up Hindi words and poems which we would have never been able to do at home and these classes have been very beneficial for her.
