Play Art App by Mama Suranya Books: A Creative Blend of Indian Art, Music and Learning for Kids
Team L&M
Following the success of its illustrated storybooks, Mama Suranya Books has launched Play Art. It is an Indian art-based colouring and stickers app designed for children aged 6 to 9 years.
This app is an ideal solution for parents seeking engaging digital activities rooted in Indian art and culture. Play Art seamlessly bridges the gap between physical books and the digital world. This, it does by incorporating colouring pages and stickers inspired by Mama Suranya Books’ popular illustrated titles and folk art collections.
A Unique Digital Experience Inspired by Indian Culture
The app features interactive sticker games and colouring activities based on India’s rich natural and cultural heritage. Children can explore iconic elements such as banyan and peepal trees, mango trees, gulmohars, and birds like peacocks, parrots and eagles.
Adding to its artistic value, the app includes folk art-inspired colouring pages created by master craftsmen practicing traditional styles like Phad painting and Madhubani art. Most of the app’s graphics, icons and buttons are hand-drawn, offering children an organic and visually rich experience.
Classical Music Meets Interactive Learning
One of the standout features of Play Art is its immersive audio design. The app includes original compositions by Ustad Arif Ali Khan of the Kairana Gharana, lending it a classical musical touch.
Children can also enjoy a variety of engaging sounds—from tabla rhythms and bird calls (peacocks, koels, parrots) to ambient sounds like splashing water and children playing traditional games like gilli danda. This multi-sensory approach enhances engagement while introducing young users to Indian soundscapes in a playful manner.
Safe, Ad-Free and Parent-Friendly
Addressing parental concerns around digital safety, Play Art is completely ad-free. The app is free to download and offers a wide selection of colouring pages and stickers at no cost. Additional premium content is available through optional in-app purchases, priced affordably between Rs 10 and Rs 80.
Designed with a Vision for Cultural Learning
Play Art has been conceptualised and designed by Suranya Aiyar, the creative force behind Mama Suranya Books. Her stories draw inspiration from India’s trees, birds, animals, festivals, and everyday life—particularly the vibrant experiences of Delhi, including its summers, monsoons, and love for mangoes.
Conclusion
With its thoughtful blend of art, music and storytelling, Play Art stands out as a culturally enriching and educational app for children. It not only nurtures creativity but also introduces young minds to the beauty of Indian traditions in a fun, interactive way.
