Announcing our collaboration with Duckbill for the Hook Book Festival. I was so excited to invite families to meet the authors and illustrators behind these quirky and fun-filled stories right here in our store.
I often get asked how to make reading more engaging for kids. In this workshop at Kathalaya, I shared my favorite tips with parents on how to bond over stories and find the storyteller within themselves.
The store was filled with laughter during Nandita's lively storytelling of her book "Khane mein Kya Hai?". These sessions bring books to life and create such joyful memories for the kids and parents who attend.
It was an honor to host the enchanting book launch for "How and Why Tales" with the legendary storyteller Geeta Ramanujam. The children were captivated by her performance and loved getting their books signed.
Our Gruffalo Steam Playdate was a hit. We combined storytelling with hands-on activities like creating creature crafts and habitats, making learning a fun, interactive experience for the whole family.
I love collaborating with fellow local entrepreneurs. We partnered with Namma Baby Dentist to set up a book rental shelf and kicked it off with a fun storytelling session for the young patients.
Here's a look at the incredible lineup of authors and storytellers for our "Story MOHSAIC" event. We bring together the finest talent to celebrate stories with our community.
We were thrilled to have master storyteller and author Geeta Ramanujam grace our "Story MOHSAIC" event. She shared a special session from her book "Tales from the World."
Nurturing young talent is so important. We hosted the exclusive launch of "The Fearless Four," a book by child author Avya Krishna, as part of our community event series.
We celebrated local culture with a multilingual comic jam hosted by Rahil and Alankrita from Hallubol. They are the creators of the world's first Dakhni-English comic book series.
About Join the Fun: Events & Workshops
We keep our workshops intimate and interactive, often limiting slots to ensure every child gets hands-on time with the author or artist. Most sessions are designed for specific age groups—from toddlers to pre-teens—so do check the age suitability before booking, as we want to make sure the activity is just right for your little one’s developmental stage.
At Bond Over Bindings, our Jakkur studio isn't just for quiet reading; it's a bustling hub for "learning by doing." Whether it's a bilingual storytelling session in Kannada and English, a STEM-based playdate, or an exclusive book launch, our events are built around the idea of "Habba da Sambhrama, Kathegalu Majaa"—the joy of the festival and the fun of stories.
What can you expect?
- Interactive Storytelling: We don't just read books; we bring them to life. Past sessions have featured award-winning storytellers like Geeta Ramanujam and energetic sessions by local favorites who use puppets, songs, and movement to captivate young minds.
- Author Meet-and-Greets: We love connecting readers with writers. From exclusive book launches like "The Fearless Four" to comic jams with Dakhni-English creators, kids get a behind-the-scenes look at how books are made.
- Hands-on Workshops: We pair stories with creative play. Think STEM activities, Gruffalo-themed creature crafts, and art projects that help kids digest the themes of the books they just read.
Community First
We believe in the power of local voices. That’s why we partner with independent Indian publishers and artists to host launches for new regional books. It’s a chance for parents to discover diverse narratives while children engage in fun, messy, creative play. Whether you are looking for a weekend story-hour or a holiday camp, our space is designed for kids to run wild, get creative, and just be themselves. Ping us to see what’s on the calendar this month!
