Minimalist living with Kids; without making them feel deprived

October 29, 2020

Minimalism with Kids is possible without making your Kids feel deprived. There are some easy ways which you can use to bring the change slowly and effectively. You would ask “Why shall I convince my family and kids to follow Minimalism?”. Because you don’t want your Kids to focus on stuff but on experiences. Because you want them to enjoy nature more than screens and shopping. Because you want them to value people rather than things. But it’s not as…

Audio version of the post– Honestly, being a kid, we loved our TV time as we did not have other options of entertainment. Despite fewer options, we used to enjoy it.…

You must be wondering if I thought the same for myself when I was a Teenager or a young adult? Yes, I did. I never wanted myself to…

Foods to include in your Kid’s Diet in Monsoons

July 8, 2019

Monsoon is the time when our bodies tend to retain fluids. This weather triggers the spread of diseases. Temperature and Humidity take its toll on our immunity, leaving our bodies susceptible to ailments. There is much more moisture in the air which allows germs to multiply.

May 15, 2019

May 3, 2019

Whenever I ask my Husband to find a particular cloth in Kids wardrobe, his obvious reply comes “I didn’t find”. This is why I always keep Kid’s changing clothes outside while I leave for Office.

In these 4+ years of parenting, I always tried to find out the things that matter to Kids. You buy your Kid almost everything they ask for. You take them for rides every now and then. You make them join art/music or sports class. But nothing of these matter much to your Kids. You must be amazed at this but this is true.

Do you regret having Kids?

November 29, 2018

Let me make a confession first– Our first Kid was not a planned one. I was not at all ready to be a Parent. Even my Husband was not. But it happened. I happily announced it to everyone around. I tried not to show the disappointment to my partner but once when we were out on an after-dinner walk, I started crying. My husband was clueless. I was reluctant to tell him the truth because, by default, women are…
