It's a very nice library having a good collection of books for children. The owner Priya is very passionate and maintains a very good collection for kids. She She also does wonderful story telling sessions for the kids. She has theme based activities too. She is super hospitable. Another highlight of her library is that she has no rules. Very few places where kids can do things that they like. No compulsion to read. She has age appropriate toys as well. Overall a nice cozy place , with a very passionate librarian.
KathaVat is a wonderful place for kids. This library is a gem- run by a warm and thoughtful person Priya- who always recommends the best books for kids. There are so many engaging books that can help children truly enjoy reading and develop love for books. They host fun programs like 'Reading at the park'. There are toys and games too at the library to keep the little ones happily engaged. A perfect spot for learning and play.
I finally visited kathaVat and what a soul-satisfying experience it was. This space is everything a library for children should be: welcoming, thoughtful, and filled with stories waiting to be discovered. From the carefully curated collection to the thematic displays, every little detail spoke of intention and care. You could feel the quiet effort that librarian Priya has poured into shaping this space—and it shows. I walked in with curiosity and walked out with inspiration and joy. Thank you, Priya, for creating a space that feels like home. I hope that someday, libraries like KathaVat exist in every neighbourhood.📚
One of the much needed place in the area. This is kids library with great collection of English,Hindi, Marathi books. The collection of books is very kids friendly ranging across many topics and various age groups. Priya does fantastic job in understanding and remembering kids choices and recommending the books that they may like. In digital age they are doing good job in keeping kids connected to books.
I have been associated with the library since it's inception. Have seen their collection grow leaps and bounds since then. My daughter 4 yrs old has fallen in love with books, thanks to Priya for her wonderful recommendations. Priya has built a child friendly place where kids don't only enjoy reading books but also draw and play variety of board games. Library also conducts various story sessions which are very engaging. True to her motto Priya is creating a place of minimum screen time. I highly recommend kathavat for a great collection of books and engagement.
