If you ever wanted to introduce your child to the world of theater and plays, then here's the book you are looking for. Bharatendu Harishchandra's 1881 play, Andher Nagari, has everything in it to be considered a children's play. It's simple, lyrical, funny (at times nonsensical) and has a moral lesson too. Go visit this Andher Nagari with your kid. I'm sure you both will love it.
