Meet Nilah’s Thatha, who is forgetful, but never forgets to share a little wisdom with a smile.
Every morning, Thatha rolls his old scooter into the patch of sunlight near the gate. With a soft cotton cloth in hand, he wipes the dust off the headlamp, the handles, and the little metal box at the back. He hums an old tune as he works, pausing now and then to admire the shine returning bit by bit. Thatha smiles and keeps polishing, proud of the memories that little scooter carries.
Handcrafted with love by women of The Nilgiris, Thatha is made from soft, upcycled fabrics and safe, child-friendly materials.
