Sansaar is a non profit making organisation and a registered charity and its aim is to promote the Gujarati language and culture among young children through fun and music.
Sansaar was the “brain child” of seven friends and the organisation was set up in 2001. They had a vision to keep the Gujarati language alive among young children and felt that this could be achieved through fun and music.
Sansaar produce a wide range of Gujarati learning aids in the form of DVDs, videos, CDs, cassettes, books and jigsaw puzzles. Sansaar also produce live pantomimes and Navratri events.
Our products are suitable for children aged between 2 - 10 years old.
Yes – most definitely, although our pantomimes are in Gujarati, the
cast do translate a lot of the dialogue through the performance. Plus
there is a lot of audience interaction. All our music albums are very
lively and easy to listen to, we have had fantastic feedback from
parents to say that children as young as eighteen months begin to react
to our songs. The more you play them – the more enjoyable they are.
There are many ways in which you can encourage your kids to speak
Gujarati. We have put together some fantastic hints and tips written by
a panel of parents and endorsed by Gujarati teachers. Please visit our
Hints and Tips section in the Learning Resources area.
