About Us
At Little Banyan, we believe toys can do more than entertain. They can carry values, spark curiosity, and build a lifelong connection to culture.
As parents, we longed for screen-free toys that reflected our traditions, something beautiful, meaningful, and safe for our newborn daughter. But we found very few options that thoughtfully brought cultural stories, rituals, and values into playtime in a truly engaging, age-appropriate, and Montessori way while using the highest-quality materials we felt confident placing in our child’s hands. That’s why we created Little Banyan, a collection of products inspired by Indian culture and designed to nurture wonder, identity, and imagination.
Rooted in Montessori principles, our toys are intentionally simple, modern, sensory-rich, and open-ended. Each piece invites hands-on learning, storytelling, and meaningful connection without a screen in sight.
We believe meaningful, well-made toys should be accessible to families. That’s why we work carefully to keep our prices as affordable as possible while maintaining the highest standards of quality, craftsmanship, innovation, and safety, never cutting corners where it matters most.
Every Little Banyan product is made from natural, non-toxic materials and rigorously tested to meet strict ASTM safety standards. Built to last, our toys are designed to grow with your child and be passed down, just like the stories and values they will create.
Whether you're a family deeply rooted in your heritage or one just beginning to explore it, Little Banyan offers a thoughtful, welcoming way to connect with Indian culture. Our toys open up conversations, spark curiosity, and help children see and learn about our culture with joy and pride.
