“We are loving Tashi Non-Stop videos on YouTube. Julian is rapt-laughing, grimacing, smiling and staring in fascination. I love the educational component, how you mix it with your own quirky humor. My 7-year-old son, who loves Harry Potter and Star Wars, hangs on your every word and funny, quirky action. And always with a smile on his face.”
