Abstract: This is of utmost importance to preserve cultural heritage since future generation, being the custodians of heritage, give special attention to the design of the educational concepts to young children. India which is sometimes referred to as a sub-continent of a state has a rich and diverse cultural heritage. This legacy shows how rich and diverse the history of this country is. Indian history is an account of different traditions, beliefs and arts shaped by various peoples and religions and its origin dates back to the ancient Indian Indus valley civilization up to the modern culture that is lively and rich. All cultural artifacts in India belong to the Indian collective memory, which connects one with the past and the present. This will not only help in the preservation and maintenance of the cultural aspects of the society by offering the children a chance to discover their cultural treasures, but it will be easier to pass this chain of values across generations. Out of the many elements of visual communication, being a universal language that can be understood and utilized by all people, it is regarded as a means of learning to young people, bringing an understanding of how precious cultural past is. Given the relevance and significance of ancient Indian heritage, this study was planned as a case study and some visual communication strategies were suggested to teach the heritage to the Indian students including the opportunities and constraints in certain cases.
