5 Reasons Why Nijikart Is The Perfect Store For Children's Storybooks

There is an old proverb that goes, “A child who reads will be an adult who thinks.” At Nijikart, we aim to make those readings tailored to your child’s reality, so the reading is engulfed in curiosity, adventure, and joy in relevant realities, beyond the world that is limited to kings and queens.

Nijikart is a platform that makes buying storybooks for your child a whole experience in itself. Our journey started from our own home, where the opportunity of creating personalized storybooks presented itself in a struggle.  We struggled to keep our child interested in the storybooks we bought from the market, but the interest and curiosity could not be created because the stories weren’t relevant. Hence, began our journey of co-creating personalized stories for your children wherein your child is the lead role in their story, under the context you decide.

Here are 5 reasons why we think Nijikart is the perfect store for your child's storybooks

1. Love for reading

A genuine love for reading (especially in this digital age which is monopolized by YouTube and streaming applications) is a precious quality to have. At Nijikart, we are a team of technologists, educators, creators, designers, and, most importantly, parents who haven't lost touch with their inner child, and value this quality because it truly expands our horizons, and makes us more innovative and curious people. 

When these qualities of inquisitiveness and innovation get a kick start in a world of personalized stories, that curiosity and joy of reading can be explored in so many exciting situations.

2. Stories that matter

One of the best parts about personalized storybooks with Nijikart is you can co-create stories that matter. Stories with morals like gratitude, kindness, generosity, etc can become a part of your child’s bedtime reads. You can introduce different situations where your child, the lead role of the story, learns these values in a safe and enjoyable setting. This way, these stories, tailored to the uniqueness of each child, can also be a treasured opportunity for parents and children to bond uniquely.

3. Opens new avenues

Children’s adventure stories can be about more than just stereotypical adventure tales. When children see themselves as protagonists of stories with their friends and kin as characters in their OWN stories, it can open many avenues for them. That blurred line between magic realism and relevant stories can spark up their imagination as the child gets to know the possibilities of the world through these stories.

4. An introduction to our culture

Children’s storybooks are mostly dominated by the Western landscape, as it has been observed. At Nijikart, you have the opportunity to subvert that narrative and use customized story books as an opportunity to introduce children to our culture and ethnic aesthetics. Given the diverse country India is, these personalized storybooks can be a window to peek into different cultures our country offers and be introduced to ‘unity in diversity’ right from a tender age.

5. An introduction to new talents and skills

When you have the monopoly of choosing the context of the story for your child, it can be used as a wonderful opportunity to introduce talents and skills that the child may like to take upon. Imagine co-creating a story for your child where the character based on them is keen on drawing and spends their time drawing fruits and vegetables. This will not only introduce your kid to different names of vegetables and fruits but may also create a curiosity for drawing! 

Similarly, there are many skills and talents you can introduce your child to. This is one of the most wonderful reasons why personalized stories from Nijikart are perfect for your child. 

One of the factors closest to our hearts at Nijikart is committing to our social and environmental duties. We understand that while we want to create a beautiful and valuable world of stories with and for your children, there are many children out there who do not have access to books or education. For every purchase you make with Nijikart, we contribute to a charity or community that assists child education. 

Additionally, as aforementioned, we are mindful of nature that provides us the opportunity to create these books. Hence, for every purchase you make with Nijikart, we donate to a cause that helps plant trees.
