About Kids' Reading & Creative Writing Program
Why Our Club Exists
Kids these days, screens everywhere - <em>aaj ke zamane mein</em> (in today's times), getting them to read is tough. That's exactly why I started Avid Readers Club. Here, it's not about tuition or boring homework. It’s our tribe, our little gang of book lovers. The goal? Make reading exciting, not a task.
What Happens in a Session
- We pick a book and jump right in - stories that are quirky, emotional, sometimes downright wild.
- Sessions are interactive - not just listening, but talking, debating, and laughing together.
- Every child gets to be a ‘word detective’ - we spot new words and figure out what makes a story tick. Building vocabulary through stories happens naturally here.
- If your kid’s shy, reading aloud helps them find their voice. Confidence grows, bit by bit.
- Imagination gets a workout too - creative writing exercises for kids spin off from the stories we read.
How It Works
- For kids aged 7 to 12 who are curious or just bored of routine.
- All sessions are online, so you don’t have to worry about location.
- We meet three times a week, one hour each.
What I Want for Your Child
I want every kid to find a friend in books. My role is to guide, recommend stories, and let them discover what they love. Interactive reading sessions for children aren’t just about literacy - it’s about opening up their world. Sometimes, it’s messy, sometimes magical, but that’s what makes it real.

My Story
Honestly, I’m happiest with chai and a book. Books have been my people, you know? Started Avid Readers Club just wanting folks to swap scrolling for stories, and look at us now – a real tribe. We’ve got awards but the best thing? Seeing everyone light up at our events. Our Human Library is my favourite bit, where people sit together and share what’s real. Gandhiji said it best – we’re just adding honest drops to the ocean.
My Work
Book launches, reviews, and meet-ups - We do interactive book launches, author meet-and-greets, and give authentic book reviews. Always real, never fake.
Promoting Indian authors - Love giving Indian writers a platform. Our events are more than parties – expect performances and deep chats.
Ladies’ reading club - Coffee, girl talk, books, and Human Library events. Sometimes drama, poetry, sometimes rap. It’s a sisterhood.
Kids’ creative reading classes - For ages 7-12, our online classes make reading fun. We help with vocabulary, creative writing, and less screen time.
