Story, Art, Read, Share, and personalised keepsakes, on Hridaa.
The ad-free studio where children write their own books, draw their own heroes and grow into readers. In “Write it myself”, AI only illustrates and asks questions, so the words stay theirs. Parents stay in control.
A parent sets up the account. Each child gets their own profile and PIN.
Your child picks the hero and the ending
🎁 NEW · Personalised keepsakes
Why being the hero matters
When children see themselves in a story, they lean in, talk more and remember more.
Builds confidence
Being the brave one in the story helps them feel brave in real life.
Sparks imagination
Stories feel bigger when they make the choices that change the ending.
Grows words
Research with young readers found they picked up new words better from books with their own name in them.
Brings you closer
Every keepsake ends with “Let’s talk together” questions for you and your child.
Research note: Kucirkova, Messer & Sheehy (2014), First Language, on personalised books and word learning in young children.
What your child can do
Write it. Draw it. Read it. Share it.
Each child gets their own space, with their own PIN and their own library.
How it works
One idea. Five adventures.
Every story leads somewhere real. Follow one idea all the way through Hridaa.
Chiku the tiger cub loses her kite…
Your child picks a hero, a world and a mood. Hridaa writes an illustrated story where they choose what happens next, then reads it aloud in English or Hindi.
…so they draw Chiku themselves
A big, friendly canvas. Then one tap turns the drawing into watercolour, Madhubani, clay or a night-sky painting. The drawing stays private.
…then read it aloud with Owl
Words light up as your child reads out loud, and Owl listens on the device itself. Every book, every minute of reading grows their owl, from egg to wise owl and a Golden Feather.
Try a little of each
Things children make on Hridaa
Examples you can tap right here. Every child's creations are private to their family.
Chiku and the Runaway Kite
“The wind tugged the kite higher and higher. Should Chiku climb the tree, or ask the wise owl?”
A doodle becomes a painting
Draw anything, then pick watercolour, Madhubani, clay or night-sky. The original drawing stays private.
Tap each word as you read it
☆☆☆
In the app, Owl listens while your child reads aloud, on the device itself, and lights up each word.
🦉 Young owl
🪶 12 / 30 feathers
Reading, writing and quizzes grow the owl. At 30 feathers it graduates with a Golden Feather, and a new egg hatches. No leaderboards.
