What is Baatein Sneh Khel?

Baatein Sneh Khel - Talk, Care, Play is a storytelling initiative by Dost Education.

It captures the everyday moments where children learn best: a conversation while cooking, a cuddle after a hard day, a game made from whatever is at hand. The families you’ll meet here are from villages and towns across Uttarakhand, Bihar and Uttar Pradesh, sharing how small, ordinary moments became powerful learning for their children.

It’s the human heart of Dost’s belief that the family is a child’s first and most important teacher.

Our Mission & Vision

Everyday moments are a child’s first classroom. Let’s nurture them through talk, care and play.

Baatein Sneh Khel celebrates the families turning daily life into early learning - a Dost Education initiative helping children across India arrive at school ready to thrive, through talk (baatein), care (sneh) and play (khel).

Meet the Families

Caregiving is at the heart of early childhood education. But what does responsive caregiving actually look like in the everyday lives of families, especially in a country as diverse as India?

Caregiving plays an essential part in early childhood care and education. It highlights the concept of Responsive Caregiving by emphasising how "care" & "caregivers" are synonyms!

Responsive Caregiving is the ability of the caregiver to notice, understand, and respond to their child’s unique needs in a timely and appropriate manner.

While there is a lot of research that establishes the significance of responsive caregiving, have you ever wondered what this truly looks like in the everyday lives of a family? Especially in a country as diverse as India?

That’s why we embarked on a beautiful journey to capture responsive caregiving practices across families. In this journey, we learn about each family's story within their unique contexts and get a glimpse of talk, care and play in action! Come, let’s meet the families!
