Naad had its first book exhibition at its premises on August 24 and 25, 2005. Comet Media Foundation, an organization based in Mumbai, was invited to exhibit its toys and books for the families at Naad.
Toys and books at the exhibition
Their toys are traditional, culturally relevant and made mainly from organic materials like wood, lacquer, bamboo and cotton fabric. The books re-tell traditional stories, are beautifully illustrated and encourage imagination and language.
Children and parents at the exhibition
The children enjoyed playing with the puppets and toys while the parents browsed through the books and made their choices. Some books had been pre-selected for the children by the therapists based on each child’s language comprehension.
