Born in 2004, Bachpan established its first branch in Ambala, Haryana. Within three years of its establishment, it opened 100+ branches and then continued its journey of expansion, opening branches in Nepal as well. Mr. Ajay Gupta, the CEO, in a conversation, addressed the factors that led him to establish Bachpan. 'While exploring preschools for my daughter, I found a lack of updated books, structured curriculum, and tech tools – thus, Bachpan Play School was born in 2004.'
When paired with an enjoyable learning atmosphere, a child-centric curriculum puts the student at the center of education, emphasizing their interests, skills, and learning style. Through play, storytelling, and interactive activities, it fosters children's creativity, exploration, and hands-on learning.
The nationally recognized preschool brand is well-known for its distinctive curriculum that completely aligns with the National Education Policy (2020). Established in more than 1200 locations across the country, SPROUT is currently the best preschool curriculum available. It was created following 35,000 hours of intensive research, and it has raised the bar for the early education industry.
Education doesn't happen in a vacuum. It finds its rhythm in the community's heartbeats, breaths, and changes. Celebrations and events held in educational settings provide more than just joyous occasions; they build bridges across values, cultures, and generations. Schools transform into living ecosystems of shared meaning when they welcome customs and include parents, teachers, and local voices in addition to students.
The parents are the ones who tell the story, not just the numbers. Stories from all over the nation emphasize moments of joy, trust, and transformation. Ms. Muskan from New Delhi, shared 'As a parent, I always want to give the best of everything, and I am glad that I enrolled my kids in Bachpan Play School.' Students of Bachpan Play Schools
This sense of community is purposeful at schools like Bachpan, not random. In addition to being performances, celebrations are designed to be interactive events that involve all participants and quietly foster a culture in which education permeates not just the classroom but also the homes and hearts of those it touches.
Some places still celebrate the wonder of beginnings, even though the cacophony of success frequently overpowers the serene beauty of a child's first discovery. Bachpan Play School has quietly created a legacy of education, joy, trust, and transformation for more than 20 years, with presence across 400+ cities nationwide. In a world that is moving quickly, Bachpan stays grounded in what is most important: lifelong, joyful learning.

A ‘Beer Cafe,' a Smash Burger Window, and 16 More Seattle Restaurant Openings to Know for July
Here's a list of notable openings we've clocked in the Seattle area in the last month. If we missed something, please email us: seattle@ . FREMONT — Award-winning chocolate maker Spinnaker has expanded from its shoebox-sized Ravenna spot to a much larger chocolate factory in Fremont. With expansion comes a chocolate cafe, featuring rich hot chocolate and even richer European-style 'drinking chocolate' alongside some chocolate cookies and brownies. (Gluten-free options are available.) LAKE CITY — Earlier this year, famed fried chicken maker Heaven Sent closed its doors, but now there's a new fried chicken spot called Cluck 'N' Crunch in its place on Lake City Way. It's serving rice bowls and chicken sandwiches in addition to chicken by the piece. DOWNTOWN — The Klimpton Hill Monaco just wrapped up some renovations, and is now ready to unveil its new restaurant called Marin, like the county. Led by longtime Seattle chef Robin Posey, it'll be serving 'global coastal cuisine,' with influences from Morocco and the wider Mediterranean. TANGLETOWN — The Bellingham-founded brewery Aslan has expanded its Seattle footprint with Aslan Brewing Tangletown, a taproom that also features a oyster-centric seafood menu. It also has a kids' menu. DOWNTOWN — Another brewery expansion: Famed craft brewery Reuben's now has a massive new taproom next to Pike Place Market. It has 220 seats (including outdoor seating), TVs tuned to sporting events, and huge windows. It also has pub food and a kids' menu. ROOSEVELT — A 'beer cafe'? That's what Human People Beer is calling itself. Open Wednesday through Sunday from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m., it's billing itself as a friendly all-day hangout spot serving small plates and sandwiches… sort of like… a bar? (We kid, we kid. Also, it has coffee if you don't like to drink beer in the morning.) BALLARD — Not a beer cafe but just a bar, Schooner Street Pub has just taken over the former Pour Decisions space on 80th Street and 15th Avenue Northwest. It's got drinks plus sandwiches and typical pub fare. WEST SEATTLE — Fresh off of opening a downtown waterfront scoop shop, Molly Moon's has added yet another location, this one in the Junction area of West Seattle. BELLEVUE — A 'purpose-driven cafe' that is apparently 'seed-oil free' according to its Instagram, Sano just opened a location in Bellevue serving protein bars, acai bowls, smoothies, and that sort of thing. It's the second of four planned locations for Sano, which started in Mercer Island. CAPITOL HILL — A new Indian restaurant called Aamrai recently opened on Bellevue Avenue. Its owner, Rupesh Naik, has worked all over the world and started his career in Mumbai. CAPITOL HILL — There's another new Indian restaurant on the other side of Capitol Hill: Mint and Martini, which on Instagram claims to have 'signature mocktails.' SOUTH LAKE UNION — A hip new waterfront wine bar called The Cove just opened in South Lake Union. It has small bites to go along with your wine, plus weekend brunch. CAPITOL HILL — The former Mercado Luna building got a rooftop bar last month and now it has a smash burger walk-up window called Double O' Burgers. This is part of the ongoing transformation of the space under Pike Street Hospitality Group. BALLARD — A tapas restaurant from South African–raised Sheldon Raju, Kahlo and Loyal just opened in the former Little Prague Bakery space. According to MyBallard, the constantly shifting menu is 'influenced by street food from around the world.' WEST SEATTLE — Steakhouse chain Jak's Grill, which used to have a few locations around the Seattle area (and still has one in Issaquah), is expanding back to the city limits, opening a new restaurant in West Seattle at the Junction. CAPITOL HILL — There's another place to get tacos from local favorite Carmelo's Tacos, as the burgeoning chain now has another restaurant at Broadway and Denny, near Cal Anderson Park. WEST SEATTLE — The search engine-unfriendly Italian restaurant The Neighborhood just opened in the Morgan Junction, serving pizza, pasta, and a few entrees. WHITE CENTER — Wolfpack Cellars, a small winery, has moved its tasting room to 9617 16th Avenue Southwest. Tasting visits are $20, but that fee is waived with the purchase of a $30 bottle.

This Artist Has Big Feelings About Indian Weddings
When Rajiv Menon opened his contemporary art gallery in Hollywood, Calif., in February, it was a tumultuous period in the art world in Los Angeles, with many galleries shutting their doors amid the wildfires that had devastated the city. Mr. Menon knew the timing was risky, but he was determined to create a space to showcase perspectives from South Asia and the diaspora. 'It was driving me crazy how that wasn't happening on the West Coast,' Mr. Menon, 36, said. 'We're seeing one-off artists here or there, but never is the work contextualized.' The opening for Rajiv Menon Contemporary brought out around 400 people, from art fans to community members in the area, including the writer Jay Shetty. Since then, the gallery has become a cultural hub for conversation in Los Angeles, as one of the few spaces in the United States to specialize in contemporary South Asian art. The gallery's new exhibition, 'Why Did I Say Yes?,' which opened to the public on June 28, features the work of Viraj Khanna, a visual artist from Kolkata, India, who primarily works with textiles. The exhibition, curated by Mr. Menon, examines the global phenomenon that the Indian wedding has become. 'Indian weddings have a very plumbable role of soft power of introducing people to different elements of Indian fashion, of Indian music,' Mr. Menon said. 'All of it happens through that vehicle, and I think that really has become the major point of cultural exchange between India and the West.' In his work, Mr. Khanna, 29, frequently explores topics around conspicuous consumption, excess and social media anxieties . The Indian wedding felt like the perfect grounds to explore those forces, he said. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
