As a new Gujarati mom of twin girls I was frustrated to see plenty of enrichment classes in English.  There is no way I could travel to NJ or Queens to expose my kids to our home state.  But I am keen to meet other parents and create our own Gujarati playgroup with the emphasis on exposing our kids to the language, foods and culture.  The idea is to meet once a week for an hour or so in Manhattan. Location can be determined.  We can do storytime, have light Gujarati snacks and song time.  We can …

These simple stories teach kids how to play chess without them knowing they're learning. And they have fun! The Rules of chess are usually too abstract for 3 year olds to grasp, there are too many of them, and some of the rules are too complicated. These stories give reasons why these rules in chess exist, Kings don't move one square at a time, they move s …
