About Children's Book & Toy Library Membership
Why I Started This Library
I wanted a place where kids could discover the magic in books and toys, not just stare at screens. After 16 years, it’s still about those big smiles when a child cracks a puzzle or finally clicks with a story. Our space is all about families connecting - I see parents becoming storybook heroes and little ones helping stack shelves. It’s not just a library, it’s a community.
What You Get with Membership
- Thousands of books for ages 0 to 13+, from sturdy baby books to epic chapter adventures.
- Educational play library: Puzzles, construction kits, and games for all ages.
- Cozy reading corners, a slide, and a ball pit for tiny tots in our namma Bengaluru (our Bengaluru) space.
- Pan-India delivery - you get curated children's book subscription boxes and toys anywhere in India.
My Book Matching Skill
I’m obsessed with finding the right book. Reluctant reader? Challenge accepted. I’ll help you pick stories tailored to your child’s age and interests. Nothing beats seeing a kid finally dive into reading.

My Story
Sixteen years, over 9000 readers—sometimes I just stand in a corner and soak it all in. Kids lost in books, dads puzzling with daughters on the floor, tiny hands building wild things. This place? Not just shelves and stories. It’s for the kids of nammabengaluru, where shy voices grow bold and toddlers light up at picture books. Being called a 'BetterIndia Hero' was cool, but honestly, the real win is seeing that spark in a child’s eyes. That’s why we’re here.
My Work
Library & Activity Hub for Kids - We rent books and toys, plus run offline and online workshops, summer camps, and interactive storytelling sessions.
Hands-on Learning & Fun - Not your quiet library. Kids build seismographs, make electric bells, and get messy with clay Ganeshas. Curiosity wins.
Personalized Book Recommendations - From picture books for tiny tots to history encyclopedias, we help every kid find their next favorite read.
A Happy Community Space - Parents join in—reading, workshops, making memories together. Happy kids, happy families, happy librarian.
