Hello, my name is
Sumeet Kaur Dhillon,
and I am the founder of
ਕਰਤਾ Creations.
We have a son named ਕਰਤਾਰ ਸਿੰਘ (Kartar Singh), who is our precious blessing from the divine creator.
Growing up in a Sikh Punjabi household, I have always valued the importance of our language and culture. I realized early on that our native language is at risk of fading away among our families. When I became a mother, I knew that I wanted to give my child the gift of bilingualism and a connection to our rich culture and heritage.
A Desire To Preserve,
The Art Of Our Language.
This idea came floating to me in 2021, my early postpartum, resting in bed admiring my newborn. I would write his name ਕਰਤਾਰ ਸਿੰਘ and remember feeling so in love, like I have literally never before, with the beautiful alphabets of our mother language ਪੰਜਾਬੀ. On that continuum of thoughts, a desire arose in my heart. A desire to preserve the art of our language; a desire to hear my son ਕਰਤਾਰ speaking our mother language ਪੰਜਾਬੀ with us, his grandparents and our families.
I searched for Punjabi toys and educational materials for kids, but found very few options available. Most of the existing resources were books, which, while valuable, didn't provide the interactive, hands-on learning experience that I was looking for. I remember thinking, out of many things about my childhood, just how much I enjoyed learning when I was playing. That's when I decided to take matters into my own hands and initiate a project of designing and creating the first ever ਪੰਜਾਬੀ English Wooden Puzzles. A collection of fun and interactive puzzles that not only promotes the learning of ਪੰਜਾਬੀ language but also fostered creativity, critical thinking, and cognitive development. And, of course, it had to be fun!
At ਕਰਤਾ Creations, our mission is to promote and preserve the Punjabi language and culture for future generations. We believe that language is an essential part of cultural identity and that every child should have access to educational resources that celebrate their heritage.
Thank you for choosing our ਪੰਜਾਬੀ-English Wooden Puzzles, and for your support in our mission to promote bilingualism and preserve ਪੰਜਾਬੀ
