About Paathsala

Built by Nepali parents abroad, for families everywhere

Many of us watched our kids understand Nepali but hesitate to speak it. Paathsala is the small daily habit we wished we had: a few words, a story, a festival to look forward to.

Parents stay in control

Children never get public profiles, messaging, or sharing. Anything that leaves the app is a parent decision.

Real life first

Every word has a mission that happens at the dinner table or the school gate, not just on a screen.

Culture, not just vocabulary

Festivals, respect words for elders, and stories set in Nepal and in the places our families now call home keep the language meaningful.

Short and joyful

Sessions are built for five minutes a day. Progress and badges reward showing up, not screen time.

Who it is for

Children aged 3 to 12 growing up outside Nepal with at least one Nepali-speaking parent or grandparent. Content is grouped into three age bands so a four year old and a ten year old can both find something that fits.
