Learning together in a circle is one of our favorite things to do! 📚✨

On Sunday, we explored Iranian produce and handicrafts from Qeshm Island, learned about their local costumes, and even crafted our own Bandari Neghaab. ♥️

🎉✨🎶 We are thrilled to announce the release of “Songs of Motherland,” our album featuring the beautiful voices of Pardis for Children’s virtual choir, led by Parham Haghighi.

The album is comprised of three volumes, each tailored to a different age group. Volume 1, now available, is performed by our youngest students, the Badoom students (ages 4-6). Volumes 2 and 3, featuring performances by Pesteh students (ages 6-9) and Gerdou students (ages 9-12), respectively, will be released soon.

We decided to recollect and remaster the audios for this album in response to the enthusiasm of our community, and children who loved the virtual choir performances and expressed a desire for audio versions. We hope these albums are not only enjoyed by listeners, but also help educators and listeners practice these songs with the instrumental versions as backing tracks.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to our amazing students and the talented songwriters – Asal Shakeri, Ava Nazar, Bijan Mofid, Fariborz Lachini, Hengameh Mofid, Mahmoud Kianoosh, Najva Khabbazian, and Negar Behbahani. And a special thanks to Parham Haghighi, the visionary behind the virtual choir, who not only taught the kids throughout the years but also re-arranged, mixed, and mastered all these songs.







🎵 Join us on this musical adventure, and stay tuned for the upcoming volumes. “Songs of Motherland” is now available on Spotify, iTunes Store, Apple Music, Amazon, and all other digital platforms.
