After her resounding success with the Parsi Calendar for kids (2021-22), Delzin Choksey of Crispy Doodles is back with another innovative Parsi Calendar for kids this year, themed, ‘Quotes From The Avesta’. She believes bringing Zoroastrianism to young kids is important and valuable and these bright colors and happy illustrations in the calendars help children learn and associate positively with important religious concepts.

The idea of a Parsi calendar for kids was birthed when her own children would ask her questions like, “Why do we have two birthdays?” or “What is the meaning of these 30 Roj?”  they asked her. Growing up, the Parsi calendar has always been an integral part of every Zoroastrian household – during prayer or to look up the Roj dates of English birthdays and other occasions.

Crispy Doodles Parsi Calendar for Kids gives children access to the Roj and helps them understand the important Parabs and dates, by sparking an interest in the child, thus giving parents the opportunity to introduce something new and valuable. Children can mark out their own Roj birthdays and meanings of important celebrations and occasions like the Muktad days or Pateti.

To see something and mark it out themselves gives children greater control and understanding than a calendar they can’t reach, don’t understand and aren’t making part of their routine. One parent shared how their child went through the calendar, month by month, copying illustrations as well as exploring and internalizing common day experiences like the divo or ses – making it a priceless and engaging Zoroastrian experience for children. In addition, there are meaningful quotes from the Avesta and Gatha added to each month. These further enhance the understanding of Zoroastrianism in young bright minds ready to change the world.
