*Summer vacations around the corner.
Parents make them busy searching for suitable camp for the kids.
Almost 2 months break...
Art, theatre,Football,basketball,robotics, dance, nature walk,cooking,painting...poured with options...
Interested parents include the following also in the list:
1. My kid this time learns to wash her plate.
A 12 yr girl last time shocked me when I asked her to put the plate in the sink by saying ' oh sorry aunt. I did not know this is my duty. My house, either maid or ma takes it..'
2. My kid , every morning learns to fold her bedsheets and and arrange the pillow and bed.
3. During this 2 months period, my kid learns to eat what I cook instead of what she likes to eat.
4. My kid , gathers her friends, going for evening walk, introduce themselves to neighbors.
5. My kid, along with her friends make lemonade after their outdoor play.
6. She has 2 cousins at hometown. When she is going to visit them, she is taking only one set of toys, not 3 sets. This time she learns how to share.
7. My kid is going to stay with grand parents, uncles and aunts without parents for atleast a week.
Kids are ready to explore. Only parents s's fear block them. Without showing them options parents decide kids can't or dnt stay without them.
8. Kids Make a dollhouse out of cardboard .
9. Kids Make kitchen utensils out of real clay.
You never believe the creativity of the kids when you leave them to do by their own.
10. Get them sick, let them healed without any medicine. Can't we wait parents? It's only vacation. Atleast now we can let their immunity work.
11. Let them wake up without alarm, let them go bed after a tiring play.
Parents who ever have the options please leave the kids at grand parents place. They will take better care than us.
There is life beyond maths, language , science, art, craft, robotics,handwriting, Olympiads etc..
Waking them up again in the morning, getting them dressed for some classes, making them sit and do activities again, please remember NOT ALL CLASSROOMS HAVE 4 WALLS.
Summer vacation is not only for kids, it's for parents who can take time to recharge themselves for the next academic year, take care of their health and mind.
And for grandparents ,uncles,aunts and cousins who are eagerly waiting for these kids to come...*
