What's 'Tales with Radhika'

Over the years, I have had numerous adventures with children. These pint-sized philosophers have given me a cherished collection of stories and insights. What never failed to amaze me is their curiosity, overflowing with questions, and a fearless spirit that radiates through everything they do. Yet, in our pursuit to educate them, we sometimes unintentionally clip their wings of imagination.

Therefore, we must provide children with a playground to let their creativity run wild, filling their hearts with love, minds with ideas, and a desire for boundless curiosity.

My stories and books, I aspire to do just that!

My Books

"The Yummylicious Make-Belief Series"

Children have an incredible ability to understand the world through imaginative play. Itʼs a fascinating journey where they invent ideas and stories that can surprise even the most seasoned storytellers. This free-flowing, creative play is not only fun but also essential for developing critical thinking skills. Inspired by the magic of make-believe, I have written the first three books in this delightful series.

As an educator, some of my fondest memories were spent in the playroom, where I would eagerly join in the imaginative adventures of the children. Lost in the whirlwind of their creativity, I often found it hard to return to the mundanity of everyday routines. Each visit to the playroom was like embarking on a thrilling rollercoaster ride of imagination, and itʼs these magical moments that have shaped the heart and soul of the ʻYummylicious Make-Beliefʼ series.

Children are mini explorers with a built-in curiosity setting, always investigating everything around them. In our early years centre’s kitchen garden, a child pulled up a potato but got completely intrigued by the magical mud squishing through her fingers, overlooking the potato entirely.

The Wildernesslicious Series" offers stories that subtly coax children toward the captivating beauty of nature, igniting a lifelong connection with the natural world, one curious exploration at a time.
