First Children's Bookshop & Reading Room in Ubud, Bali

07/07/2026

23 weeks of Storytimes has passed, 15 readers and counting! (How did we get through half the year so fast?!) June only had 3 Storytimes because on Wed, 17th we’re closed for Galungan. Nonetheless, our Storytimes were filled with fun, game and quizzes!

Special guest, Ubud storyteller and illustrator kak Hary hand-crafted a beanstalk that grew high into the sky🌱 And encouraged the kids to use their imaginations of what could possibly be above the clouds☁️

Our beloved storyteller kak read a couple of books on farm animals🐑🐑🐑 then taught the kids how to play a classic game ‘pin the tail on a donkey’🫏 Meanwhile, I read a Balinese folktale retold by Margaret Read MacDonald, “Go To Sleep, Gecko!”🦎

Si Kecil Storytime is a weekly activity, every Wednesday 4.30pm - FREE! We have different reader every week and you can read to the kids too, just let us know. English, Indonesian or bilingual… welcome🤗

Go to the last slide to reveal our July schedule🗓️ Stay tuned for a very very special celebration this month🎉

“Clean Water for Everyone” — We are happy to announce that we now have free drinking water for all visitors of Si Kecil🌈

It was a wonderful surprise when chosen us as their partner to receive one of their Terra Lite Filter, with custom design!😍

I’ve personally been using Terra water filter at home and enjoying the benefits💕 It saves money from purchasing water gallons, and the hassle of replacing them. You can just use tap water to top it up. The filtered water is clean, safe and taste good🩵

Having Terra water filter at Si Kecil🌈 ensures clean and safe water for our staff and little visitors. Everyday, many children from the village and families from in and outside Ubud come to hang out in our reading room📚 It could save them money too and from the need to buy single use plastic water bottled.

Terra is on a mission to provide clean and safe drinking to Indonesian families, promoting a healthier lifestyle and reducing plastic waste.

If you’re interested to support their cause, we have one of Terra published children’s book “Bali ABC’s” filled with fun rhymes referencing Balinese/Indonesian words and culture for the ABC’s by Declan Robinson with fabulous illustrations by award-winning local artist, I Made Griyawan — Available in Si Kecil Bookshop🌈
 Book sales support Terra’s social and environmental program throughout Indonesia which focus on filters donation, educating families on good water, sanitation, and hygiene practices, and reducing plastic waste on our island home. 
One village at a time.
 And if you want to have Terra water filter in your home or business head to their website: Terra Lite is the most affordable and fun with the custom design, but their Terra Ceramic is a thing of beauty🫶

“The Crown” by Emily Kapff is a stunningly illustrated picture book and an environmental poem🍃

Speaking from the future, a girl wears a crown made from the rubbish passed down to her by previous generations. Her Earth is covered by waste, but beneath the landfill she discovers a book of pictures that show her the past - our world as it is now - and she is filled with joy by the beautiful sky, land, sea and creatures that she sees.

Not just delivering a positive message about protecting the world we live in, but this beautiful book also shows the power of imagination and a book itself📖

“The Crown” is available in Si Kecil Bookshop🌈 Ubud, Bali — limited stock.

The book opens with a reminder from Native American proverb, but I’ll leave you with it:

“Treat the earth well:
it was not given to you by your parents, it was loaned to you by your children.
We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children.”

Feelings just want to be felt… What started off as a personal creative project following a 12-week guided program from Julia Cameron’s book “Artist’s Way”… resulted in a beautiful set of cards — Emotions Talk💕

Oftentimes big feelings like anger, jealousy, fear, guilt, shame, etc. tend to be suppressed. They are seen as bad. Parents hurried to fix, dismiss or distract them.

However, Kasia, a mother of 3, believes that all feelings deserve to be felt. Children often don’t need us to solve their emotions — they need safe space to feel, with someone calm and curious beside them.

Sometimes they can’t find words for it, and that’s okay. There is something equally powerful in simply meeting the feeling in the body, without needing to explain or understand it. Both go hand in hand — the body and the mind, the sensation and the story.

She hopes these cards can open many gentle conversations between parents and their children❤️

Each image was originally hand-painted and the cards come in an all-natural palm leaf woven case.

Emotions Talk card set available in Si Kecil Bookshop🌈 Nyuh Kuning, Ubud, Bali.

Di penghujung tahun ajaran ini Balinese Children’s Education Foundation x Si Kecil🌈 meluncurkan program baru “Storytime Keliling”📖

Seperti namanya ini adalah kegiatan membaca nyaring tapi dilakukan di dalam kelas atau sekolah2. Jadi bukan anak2 yg datang ke Si Kecil🌈 seperti biasanya tiap hari Rabu, tapi kak yg datang ke anak2🤗

Program ini khusus untuk Taman Kanak2 dan khusus bagi yg sudah menerima Pojok Baca dari Balinese Children’s Education Foundation📚 Atas usulan Pak Storytime Keliling diadakan untuk menumbuhkan minat baca anak dan mengaktifkan Pojok Baca di kelas. Karena dalam kegiatan Revisit kunjungan balik ke sekolah2 sebelumnya, tidak semua Pojok Baca dimanfaatkan sebagaimana yg kami harapkan. Juga sejak bulan Oktober lalu kami menjumpai TV layar besar di setiap kelas TK!👀

Kami merasa membacakan nyaring secara langsung menggunakan buku masih memiliki manfaat tersendiri dibandingkan dengan membacakan/memberikan tontonan dari layar.

Sebagai buku perdana yg dibacakan menjelang libur sekolah dan perayaan Galungan adalah… “Pisangku Belum Matang” tentang salah satu tradisi dalam menyambut Galungan di Bali karya penulis dan ilustrator .edlyn dari penerbit

Anak2 sangat antusias mendengarkan dan kak Cahya sangat interaktif ketika membacakan. Anak2 juga diajak mempraktikkan nyekeb pisang, makan pisang bersama, dan yg bisa menjawab pertanyaan kuis bisa membawa pulang bukunya🤩

Terima kasih sudah berbagi video kunjungan Storytime Keliling di sekolahnya🙏❤️

Sampai jumpa di tahun ajaran baru dengan buku menarik lainnya!
