Indian classical music, made playful for children.

The story

1. 01

   Background

   ShrotaHouse is a mobile app that introduces children to the world of Indian classical music. For young learners, music education works best when it feels like play, through games, sounds and discovery rather than lessons alone.

   The app was already live, but the team wanted to deepen engagement with new ways to learn, and to connect children and families with live classical music happening around them.

   The challenge

   

   The goal was to make learning Indian classical music more engaging for children while extending the app beyond the screen into real-world concerts.

   Key challenges included:

   • Keeping children engaged with learning content over time
   • Making existing games more intuitive and enjoyable to use
   • Adding new interactive ways to learn about artists, instruments and musical concepts
   • Helping users discover upcoming Indian classical music concerts
   • Making it easy for families to reach the ShrotaHouse team

   Our approach

   We focused on two things: making learning more playful, and connecting the app to live music.

   We refreshed the app's core experience, starting with a revamped home screen. We improved the interfaces of the existing learning games and added a new game to widen the learning experience. Alongside this, we built a Live Concert Tracking System so users can discover and follow upcoming classical music events, turning in-app learning into real-world listening.
