Your email, your city, your child's age and how many children aged 4–9 you have. That's it.
Yours today, free: the Finch Family Folder.
Twenty pages to keep: height and weight charts that show where Indian children stand against the world, a BMI check, and plain pages on how much a child of 4–9 should eat and drink — following Australia's national dietary guidelines. Fill it in on your phone or print it. No product in it, no strings.
The charts show where children stand — not where yours should be. Most children are exactly where they should be, and growing is a line, not a dot.
Sent to your email the moment you reserve. General information, not medical advice.

- Two sachets per envelope. One envelope per household, India delivery addresses only, for the first 500 families to reserve, in order.
- The envelope carries the full ingredient list, allergen information and age guidance. Contains milk. For children aged 4 to 9; for ages 4–5, use only under medical advice of a physician or certified dietician or nutritionist.
- Your address and phone number are used to deliver the envelope and for nothing else, and are deleted after delivery unless you order.
- The ₹300 code applies to one carton at launch, valid 30 days from the day we send it. It's a thank-you for telling us the truth — not a promise about anything else.
- Reserve-list price: ₹2,499 incl. taxes for your first three cartons. If anything about the offer changes before launch, we tell you by email first, and you can walk away.

Questions about the first 500.
Is the sample really free?
Yes. No payment, no shipping charge, no card. We'd rather you taste it than take our word for it.
Why only 500?
Because the first production run is small and every sachet in the envelopes comes from it — two sachets per envelope, one envelope per household, for the first 500 families to reserve, in order. When they're gone, they're gone — the reserve list still gets first cartons and the price lock.
When does the envelope arrive?
With the first shipment into India, early 2027. We email the first 500 before it ships; you give us your address then, not now.
What if my child won't drink it?
Then you've lost nothing — and we'd still like to know; that's exactly what the reply is for.
Why do you ask how it went?
Because a sachet a child refuses delivers nothing, and we're still tuning the taste. Your answer changes what we make.
Do I have to buy anything?
No. The ₹300 is there if you want it. The reserve list never charges you.
Every other question, answered
Not for medicinal use. ₹2,499 including all taxes is locked for your first three cartons. Nothing is charged until you place your order at launch. If anything about the offer changes before launch, we tell you by email first, and you can walk away.
