Bhopal. 12/06/2018 Aadarsh, the children’s specialist publisher has joined hands with Gratex, the Mumbai-based wall coverings manufacturer. With this alliance, Gratex launched a new collection of wallpapers featuring designs of Purple Turtle and Colour Fairies, suitable for children of all ages.

The wallpapers are available in two variants—generic ‘Naturals’ with non-interactive cartoon prints, and their ‘Smart’ version with an accompanying app Scan Alive. The app allows users to scan the characters on the wall with a smart device to reveal interactive stories/rhymes on the tablet or smartphone.
“The characters are fun and exude an international appeal. Colour Fairies are liked by girls more while Purple Turtle is equally favourite with all,” said Manish Rajoria, Director, Aadarsh Pvt Ltd. “The vibrant colours and striking designs will not only brighten up kids’ rooms but also provide a stimulating environment for their developing minds.”
Featuring stunning digitally printed designs of animal characters in lush forest greens and magical land of Colour Fairies replete with blush pink among many soft hues, the wallpapers will be perfect focal point for kids’ rooms, nurseries and crèches. What makes this even more interesting is that each character in the smart wallpapers seems to come to life with the scanning app combo, encouraging fun family time by transforming storytelling/singalong experiences.
