This time of the year is truly magical, as the world wakes up from its winter slumber. The trees are blossoming, the days are brighter, and nature is alive with fresh energy. Spring reminds us of the beauty of new beginnings and the importance of cherishing the world around us.

April also brings the festive spirit of Easter, a time for family, fun, and hope. Whether you’re painting eggs in dazzling colors, participating in thrilling egg hunts, or savoring delicious chocolate treats, Easter is all about spreading joy and kindness.

Dear KidlioMag Readers,

As we welcome the vibrant colors of spring, we have two wonderful celebrations to look forward to: Holi and Women’s History Month.

March is Women’s History Month, a time to honor and celebrate the incredible contributions of women throughout history. This month, we shine a spotlight on women authors who have inspired us with their words and stories. From classic tales to contemporary narratives, women writers have enriched our lives with their creativity, wisdom, and courage. Let’s take this opportunity to read, learn, and appreciate the achievements of women authors who have shaped our world.

Happy Women’s History Month!

Dear KidlioMag Readers,

As we step into this vibrant season, we have three wonderful occasions to celebrate and learn from: Valentine’s Day, Black History Month, and the Maha Kumbh 2025.

Valentine’s Day is a special time to celebrate love and friendship. It’s about showing kindness and appreciation to those we care about. Let’s spread love and joy everywhere we go. Happy Valentine’s Day!

February is Black History Month, a time to honor and celebrate the incredible contributions of Black individuals throughout history.

Get ready for an extraordinary event! The Maha Kumbh 2025 is just around the corner, and it’s one of the largest and most significant religious gatherings in the world. It’s a time for reflection, prayer, and taking a dip in the sacred rivers to cleanse the soul. Wishing everyone a blessed and joyous Maha Kumbh 2025!

Happy Valentine’s Day

The Power of Respect: Forever Friends is my favorite because it was inspired by the real-life experiences of two former preschool students, Eleanor and Amelia, who are now 10 years old. They shared their heartfelt stories about overcoming challenges in elementary school, which made this book incredibly special. It’s a touching reminder of the importance of respecting others and building meaningful friendships, values that resonate deeply with both children and adults. Collaborating with them brought the message to life authentically and relatable, making this book a treasure in my series.
