We are closed and will open at 09:00 am
At Ithra, we celebrate this special day with enriching, hands-on and minds-on engagements that ignite creativity and empower children.
This year, children will embark on a journey where they become the heroes of their own narratives. Inspired by classic tales and their unique perspectives on the world, they will craft stories that reflect their individuality. Through a vibrant mix of interactive workshops, storytelling sessions and the Children's Book Fair, we will ignite creativity and empower young minds.
