Everything a parent usually wants to know.
Is Sikhi Summer free?
Yes — completely free and open. No sign-up, no login, no ads. Every story, Shabad, coloring sheet and activity is right here for any family to use, any time.
Do we have to do it every day?
No. It is self-paced — do a day whenever you like, skip around, or take a break and come back. Each day stands on its own, so you never have to "catch up."
What ages is it for?
Ages 5–12. Every day has a quick "younger / older" tip so the same idea fits a 5-year-old and a 12-year-old in the same family.
Do we need to read Gurmukhi?
No. Everything is in English. Gurbani comes with transliteration so your child can say it, and a kid-friendly meaning so they can understand it. A tiny optional Gurmukhi letter each day helps them start reading too — but it's never required.
How long does each day take?
About 15 minutes for the core. Each day is a menu, not a checklist — pick two or three activities, and do more only if your child is enjoying it.
What will my child learn?
Over the journey, a warm foundation in Sikhi: the One Creator, the ten Gurus, core values, the Khalsa, the meaning of Gurbani, and how Sikhi is lived — festivals, the Gurdwara and sewa.
Made by Sikh parents and teachers, for our kids. Always free.
