BKK #43: Through a thoughtful conversation between a cow and a goat, this poem of Iqbal emphasizes on having a positive perspective in life. 

Kids learn that it is their choice to either focus on the positives and be happy, or keep complaining about the challenges in life.

Mahwash asks the kids to take some time to count their blessings and be grateful to God and does the same.

Kids learn South Asian poetic recitation style, and Urdu words and get quizzed on Pastures, Stream, Cold Breeze, Life, Captivity, Freedom, and Complaint among others.

Welcome to the First-Ever Educational Podcast on Urdu Stories for children! 

Urdu stories from our childhood, narrated by Mahwash. Living abroad Mahwash realized that in the fast-paced life of a modern expat family, children lose touch with their Pakistani heritage, language, and experiences. Through the retelling of these stories, she brings to life our childhood experiences, building curiosity and imagination in our children, giving new life to the famous characters of yore. Mahwash aims to revive the art and medium of Urdu story narration and lessons learned all the while preserving our language and culture.  

It’s the kahanis of our nani and dadi, retold for our children again!
