Maya’s Adventure

There are important conversations going on about racism, colorism and inclusion. Despite the surge of activities attempting to address these issues, strong underlying biases and perceptions still persist. The stereotypes people hold don’t seem to change over time. Moreover, these ideologies are being passed on to their children, shaping their views and values.  

Why should one be treated better if they have fairer skin? Why was this a universal belief? These thoughts not only need to be questioned but also actually changed. Our future relies on children, on young minds that are still malleable. 

Maya’s Adventure is a non competitive board game for South Asian children that aims at mitigating any colorist biases. Through positive reinforcement  and a game that focuses on love for all, these kids will learn to love themselves  and those around them.
