Baloo Bhai 2 is a font you can install on a Mac.

About

Baloo Bhai 2 is a font available through Google Fonts. The Homebrew cask installs one file, BalooBhai2[wght].ttf, in the user’s ~/Library/Fonts folder. The file name identifies it as a variable-weight TrueType font; the cask does not install a separate application.

To install it, run brew install --cask font-baloo-bhai-2. After installation, select Baloo Bhai 2 in the font menu of a compatible application. Installing the file makes the font available to applications that support installed fonts; it does not by itself change an application’s font settings. The installed file establishes the included font artifact, but does not establish complete Unicode coverage or support for particular typographic features.
