Beyond Homework: Reconnecting with Our Children

Many MarketPlace artisans are deeply committed to their children's education, often making personal sacrifices to keep them in school. Most didn't finish high school themselves, and today's academic pressures feel overwhelming. Feeling unprepared to help with school homework, about 95% send their children to tutorial classes—despite them being expensive, and overcrowded.

This sparked open conversations: Are these classes truly helpful, or just something mothers feel obligated to provide? The discussions quickly went deeper, revealing how academic stress was straining emotional bonds between mothers and children.

So, the focus shifted: How can we support learning while also nurturing love and connection?

A simple activity helped bridge the gap. Each mother made a bookmark and wrote a loving message for her child—words like “My Star” or “Kind Soul.” Rahat from Pragati shared, “I was ashamed to say that it was hard to think of kind words at first, we are always criticizing our children. But now I see how important it is. We need to speak with love every day.”

Many compliments!

Got the large, fit well at shoulders and large belly. The cotton knit is thin.. so good for summer.
With this dress, it's easy to look "put together " on a few minutes!

I ordered a size Medium -- it is more comfortable in the shoulders, and the sleeves are now adequate. It's a bit more roomy around, but it drapes nicely, so that's fine. I'm 5'8". And it has pockets!

Elegant comfort
Aug 18, 2025  |  By Laura
The slightly stretchy knit jersey fabric makes this dress easy to move in. I'm 5'8" and slim, so the small fits well, but I'd also be happy with a medium for a more relaxed fit. I love the embroidery that accents the printed pattern.

I've purchased many Marketplace items over the years; this dress is by far my favorite. Love the style and gorgeous comfortable fabric. (and thank you for the modest neckline!)

Beautiful and Comfortable Dress

The needlework on the dress complements the fabric pattern artfully. The soft material of the fabric makes the dress a joy to wear.

Small petite was huge!
Jan 17, 2025  |  By Elizabeth
When I saw this dress in your catalog, I so wanted to have this dress as part of my wardrobe. I ordered a small petite size for myself (I am 5'3", about 127 pounds, so almost always choose petite sizes in clothing). When the dress arrived today, however, I tried it on and discovered that it was big and baggy, unbecoming because it was cut so generously. I tried it with a belt, but then the extra fabric bunched out in the front and back, not a good look, at all. There is no smaller size offered so I will be returning the dress, as much as I liked the fabric and pattern design. To wear it well I would have to get it professionally altered, and given the initial price of the dress, paying for tailoring would add way too much to the cost-per-wearing. So disappointed! And I DO want to support MPI. Why is a small petite size so enormous?
