All children are artists. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up.
Gandhiji's message being imbibed by the kids as part of Gandhi Jayanti Celebrations
Labour of love... my Ganpati.
Jai Hanuman gyan gun sagar, Jai kapeesh tihu lok ujagar
Ramleela enacted for Dussehra
The popular poem " Piggy on the Railway Track" told as a story in English so that the kids get interested in it and involved with the characters to want them to recite the poem with understanding. Added on is safety and listening and doing as mama says. Mama has a reason for saying what she tells you. She loves you, she cares for you.
The Krishna Janmashthmi workshop has just got over and what a learning experience for both the kids and us the teachers. For the parents too. The Jhanki, the script picked up by the kids effortlessly, learning about different kinds of people, different Relationships, behaviours, costumes and last but not the least seeding their own value system. Its been a mind blowing experience and learning for each of the stake holders. Thanks to the Mammas, Kids and the teachers efforts and creativity.
In order to grab the attention of pre-schoolers and make them focus, it’s imperative that any learning process for them, be fun! At Mothercare, we use these celebrations as opportunities to introduce them to engrossing stories and anecdotes, thereby sowing the seeds of positive values, basic concepts, healthy habits and differentiating right from wrong, taking root easily and in depth.We can see this happening in the preparations for Rakshabandhan celebrations. Attempt is being made to widen the horizon of the festival from just one of brothers and sisters love and dependence on each other.
The kids are learning about Belonging, SANGACHADWAM, which means Lets Move Together , Loving, Giving, Caring, taking Responsibility and feeling Gratitude for all what they have. Over and above all this, its these very children who will preserve our rich culture, our traditions with acceptance and respect for all religions, well entrenched in them, celebrating festivals of all castes, creeds, regions and religions. Let’s see how it’s being invoked in the kids at Mothercare.
