Sarla tells online stories to children in a small country and abroad, setting a record of more than 350 stories
Today we are introducing you to Sarlaben Minnie, the youngest of 10 thousand children i.e. 65 years. Don't be surprised .... in fact he has established his relationship with children by telling stories. He means that many children listen to his story and consider him their little one. There is a trend of nuclear families in the present times, in these circumstances the tradition of hearing stories is almost over. However, Sarla is still carrying on this tradition very well. He is originally from Rajasthan and now lives in Bengaluru. Sends 8 to 10 minute clips of his story to more than 10 thousand subscribers. They tell stories in Hindi and English in a very beautiful accent.
The year 2021 is the biggest year of hope for this century, as the corona that has affected more than one crore people in the country will start the year with a vaccine to prevent it, so there is a lot of hope for the year 2021.
4 years ago the niece asked me to record the story and send it
“I used to tell my grandchildren a story for a long time,” says Sarlaben Minnie. However, on March 21, 2017, I became a storyteller. In fact, this happened when my niece Parul, who lives in Surat, asked me to record a story and send it. I recorded and sent the story. Wherever these stories reached, they were appreciated. People asked if this kind of story could be heard by them every day. Thus began the storytelling nanny.
Initially Sarlaben had more than 40 broadcast groups on WhatsApp. He has more than 10 thousand numbers in this group. As a result, his WhatsApp crashed within a few days. He then created his own account on the telegram, over which he now sends the story to the children. Sarlaben does not charge for this. The children also send them a voice message telling them how they feel about the story. Not only that, storytelling is also discussed in countries like Britain, America, Switzerland, Dubai. “I’ve been telling the story to the kids in my house for about 45-50 years,” says Sarlaben. In the past, I would only tell stories that I remember. I have recorded over 350 stories so far.
Did a Montessori course 30 years after graduation
"I graduated in philosophy and psychology, but I never got a job," says Sarlaben. After that they got married, but when the children grew up and went out to study, they started feeling lonely. Then I felt I should study, I felt better with the kids. I took a Montessori course 30 years after graduation. I passed first class with distance. There were children my daughter's age in that course. May then studied at Montessori for 6 months. Abacus trained from ICMAS.
At that time I was living in Kolkata. The family then shifted to Bangalore. For some years I was in charge of the house. So there was nothing I could do. Supported the kids a lot when recorded.
Sarlabe says- the story I am sending is that many voice-messages of children come to her. Once a parent from a village called and said that this story helps them so much that their children listen for hours. It increases vocabulary, knowledge. When one person wrote that my children are not grandparents. This story is the best gift for children. One was a very good response. One woman wrote that my husband was not well. They were feeling a little depressed. “Let’s put a story of a story-telling nanny,” he said. "Whether it's 8 years old or 38 years old, it's great to hear the story," Sarlaben said.
Sarlahen gives her story for one and a half hours every evening. They record the story twice a week. On Tuesdays they send Hindi Story and on Friday English Story. Starts searching for a story within a week of sending it. They read multiple versions of a story. He then improvises and prepares and records a story of his own. Sarlaben sends the story through his telegram channel, via the YouTube channel.
I say- short story gets free
"I get calls from people in the big cities asking why you don't charge for the story. Nowadays you don't get anything for free," says Sarlaben. I told them, the story of the storyteller gets free. I want to send my stories not only to the children of the cities, but also to the children of the hinterland, to as many children as possible.
Sharing a pleasant experience, he says, a seven-year-old boy has created a blog of stories listening to my story. She was informed about this when her parents called. I am very happy to see the children coming out of Doraemon and coming to these stories.
Sarlaben enlists the help of his son for all the technical work. He got excited when he saw that people were liking my story very much. My son taught me how to record audio, trim it, apply it properly and then upload it to Telegram. In conclusion, Sarlaben says that even at this age I feel I should do something.
