Sunday Brunch with Richard Martin - Hippocampus


Hippocampus came alive in the summer of 2003, with the setting up of a Children’s Experience Centre in Koramangala. The idea was to create a fun place with books and activities that kept children coming back for more and so, spread the love for reading. The collection of books for children was the biggest attraction then and continues to be so now, with new books being added every month. But, children come for various reasons – the cheerful ambience, friendly staff, fun activities on weekends, clubs, workshops and summer camps including Adventure…Science…Cooking…Nature…Theatre…Photography…and more…

Hippocampus is hosting a number of professional storytellers as part of HOO's Tales, our annual international storytelling carnival. Storytelling we have found is among the best ways to get a child excited about reading. 
They hope to raise any funds through this event for our social out reach programme, executed through our not-for-profit organisation Hippocampus Reading Foundation (HRF). HRF has developed a structured programme which is used to improve reading skills among children from govt schools, slum community libraries and village children.
