Chaat & Sweets

Fun illustrations and a good variety of Indian foods are represented. I appreciate the pronunciations and definitions on the back.

A lovely book that introduces children, and adults, to new food. The unique way that it is illustrated also is inspirational for creative projects with your kids.

This is part of a series of board books that sweetly explains the cuisines from different parts of the world. The illustrations are beautiful and the stories are fun and simple with a brief selection of the new words in foreign languages to describe the different types of cuisines. I started with this one because I happen to love Indian food! These were great board books for my toddlers (and me!).

We just love this book series, my kids have adored these books since they were about a year old. We're now buying a second set for a friend's baby shower. They're a great gift to buy for others as they're a little more unusual and it's unlikely someone else will show up with the same thing. My kids also happily eat almost anything these days and I certainly think it helps that no food was too foreign to them thanks to this series!

This book is great for introducing and reinforcing Indian food and culture to children. The artwork/style of the pictures looks to be paper collage. The food in the book or not real/realistic. However, many foods are incorporated as a point of discussion. Our daughter, who has lots of Indian food, can recognize all of these foods in the book based on their presentation.
