Four joyful days. A world of discovery. A celebration brought to life with colour!

Join the Curious Wayfarers on a welcoming journey through Pongal, a Tamil harvest festival celebrating gratitude, family and the people who help our food grow.

Created for children aged 5–10, Four Days of Pongal combines colouring, drawing and playful discovery across 48 illustrated interior pages. Explore village and city celebrations as friendly characters introduce Bhogi, Thai Pongal, Mattu Pongal and Kaanum Pongal.

Inside, young explorers can:

Colour overflowing pongal pots, sugarcane, rice fields, decorated cattle and family gatherings.

Discover how farmers grow rice and guide water to their fields.

Follow a simple look–trace–draw activity to create a flower kolam.

Learn Tamil words with Tamil script, English spellings and meanings.

Design a festival pot, complete a picture story and create a Pongal postcard.

Collect memories in their Curious Wayfarer Passport and personalise an explorer award.

Large colouring spaces, clear outlines and short, child-friendly text invite children to explore at their own pace. Along the way, they discover that families and communities celebrate in different ways.

A thoughtful choice for family celebrations, classroom activities, cultural learning and creative time together—with an accessible introduction for children discovering Pongal for the first time.

Explore. Discover. Create.
