For the next generation to embrace their culture and heritage, Kunda Kids, has concluded arrangements to release its latest title, Sarai’s Culture Day both in London and Lagos this month.
Sarai’s Culture Day is a warm and uplifting book that is the perfect springboard to teach children the importance of embracing their culture and heritage. It has encouraged schools across Europe and Africa to have their own culture day, and to learn and showcase their culture and heritage.
Written by Tania Omotayo, an acclaimed model, fashion designer, entrepreneur and proprietress of famous fashion house, Ziva Lagos, Sarai’s Culture Day, which is illustrated by Chike Obasi, will reconnect young Africans in the Diaspora to their roots.
Speaking on the inspiration behind the book and why it’s an important project for the company, Kunda Kids’ co-founder, Louisa Olafuyi noted.
“Children should be encouraged to embrace their culture, which positively impacts how they see themselves and embrace others too. For example, Sarai’s Culture Day shows parents and teachers how to do this by connecting through cultural items such as music, fashion, food and history. The groundbreaking children’s book also touches on soft critical skills such as kindness, advocacy, self-acceptance, and anti-bullying.”
The author, Tania Omotayo, advised young people to know that their originality is their superpower, adding that her three-year-old daughter, Sarai, had inspired the book, Sarai’s Culture Day. “I want young people to understand that they are uniquely perfect just the way they are, irrespective of race, religion and culture. Always be proud of where you come from; there can only ever be one you,” she stressed.
