Have you got a TaleInAMail Yet?



At one magical instant in your early childhood, the page of a book – that string of confused, alien ciphers – shivered into meaning. Words spoke to you, gave up their secrets; at that moment, whole universes opened. You became, irrevocably, a reader. - Alberto Manguel


Books... Books... Books. All parents love seeing their kids evolve as readers... but who will tells us...

Which Books do we choose?
How to read books?
What is age appropriate for my child?
I'm too busy, how can I make sure 
my child gets regular supply of books?
Till the time I understand what my child likes
s/he has already outgrown those books...

HELP.... 
Momsters Falak is a Momprenuer who runs My Little Chatterbox in Bangalore. My Little Chatterbox introduces a One of a kind monthly subscription box of hand-picked books for your children between 0-6 years. It is a completely personalized box of books for your children which you get in your mail every month!  Subscribe to Tale in a Mail for your child… It is also a great idea for a gift. You can also gift a box to start your child's very own home library.  It’s an awesome way to get your children excited about books, stories and reading. You do not need to worry about picking the right books, traveling to the bookstore or local library and deciding which books to pick.
 
Tale in a Mail is your answer if you want to connect your children between 0-9 years engaged with good quality International and Indian books. You can keep these books as treasure for years to come and build your child’s very own library. What is even better is that the books grow with your child.

Since Falak is so excited about launching Tale in A Mail in October 2013, I spoke to her about the venture. She was skeptical to feature this on Momsters, and I literally had to convince her very hard. So here is a brief about Tale in a Mail which we discussed.

Momsters: So how was Tale in A Mail born?

Tale in a Mail: I was running a reading club in Bangalore. Something that really stood out when I met parents while conducting my workshops was that more and more parents wanted to instill the love of reading in their children. Most parents were unable to pick the right age appropriate books for their kids. Another problem was parents didn’t have the time to pick the ‘right’ books for their kids.  We have always been a family of readers, and I knew the first thing you need to do if you want to raise readers is surround them with books. So, I did a lot of research and decided to start a Monthly subscription box of hand-picked books for kids.

Momsters: Tell us more…

Tale in a Mail: The boxes are based on a monthly theme. You will find Indian and International titles in the box, every month you find 2-3 books based on the theme of the month. When you start your subscription, you will have to fill a quick form to develop your child’s reading profile, based on the child’s age. Each month, my team of moms and I go through many books to finally pick books for your child. As your child grows as a reader, the book box which is based on your child’s readers profile will grow with the child.

Momsters: So what are the options?

Tale in a Mail: 

You can check more plans on their website http://www.mylittlechatterbox.in/p/tale-in-mail_25.html

Momsters: What do you get in Rs. 999/- per month?

Tale in a Mail:
  • 2-3 Age appropriate high quality titles that your kids will love based on a different theme every month for keeps. 
  • Trivia.
  • Satisfied bookworms. 
  • Worksheets
  • Suggestion on act/craft/educational activities

What Momsters love about the idea is:
  • It is totally Budget Friendly – go to buy 2-3 brand new high quality children’s book and you know what we’re talking about. What’s more it comes with trivia, personalized messages for you or your child, worksheets and activity suggestions. To top it all you get all this in a beautifully wrapped box.
  • These boxes consist of hand-picked books based on your little one’s age and preferences. 
  • Tale in a Mail boxes are delivered across India without any extra shipping charges.
  • These boxes are designed keeping your child in mind. Your child will love opening a new Tale in a Mail box every month.
  • For the parents if you choose a quarter/half year/annual subscription, you can avail discounts. If you compare the price of a box to your time spent browsing through titles, buying brand new books, trip to your local library/bookstore; you’d know these boxes are a far better bet. 
  • What's more... there is also a reference policy, that is when you refer 3 friends who subscribe with us successfully, you get a month's subscription FREE.

So whether you are a parent to a new born or a confident reader, Tale in a Mail boxes are the perfect choice for you and your little one. You can also give these boxes to your loved ones which will be a super gift idea.
