Marathi bedtime stories
your child will actually follow.

Marathi-speaking parents in Pune or Pittsburgh face the same evening: the child wants a story, and everything on the shelf is in English.

Why this matters

Every story here has a Marathi version — not a machine-shrugged approximation, but written and narrated properly, right down to gendered forms where they matter.

Every one of the 208 Marathi stories can be read on screen or listened to with the screen face-down. Your child's name is woven into personalised stories, pronounced the way you say it at home — there is a phonetic field on each child profile precisely so the narrator does not guess.

You can switch a story between languages without losing it. Hear it in English tonight and Marathi tomorrow; it is the same story, the same illustrations, the same place in the series.
