Ocean Sea Activity

We conducted a Ocean Sea activity in the classrooms which are a great resource to use to stimulate the kids interest in knowing the water world around them. Hosting an ocean activity is the perfect opportunity to introduce children to the magic and wonder of the ocean and the creatures living in it. It’s a good way to teach them about it, inspire them to protect it and allow them to explore how oceans contribute to all our lives. 







Rakhi making Activity

The festival of Raksha Bandhan signifies the bond of love and protection between brothers and sisters. On the occasion of this holy festival, sisters tie the sacred thread on the wrists of their brothers. The brother, on the other hand takes pledge to protect his sister from all dangers. On the auspicious day of Raksha Bandhan, cards, Rakhis and gifts are exchanged between brothers and sisters. Raksha bandhan was celebrated on 9th of August in the school. The teacher explained the importance of this auspicious day to the kids. The children were enthusiastic to make beautiful rakhis out of the cut outs given to them. They paste those cut outs and used their creativity to make rakhis. They used mirrors, sponge, glitter, stickers and other material to decorate the rakhi and make it more beautiful and colourful. Wishing one another happy Raksha Bandhan, the children dispersed in a joyous mood.

Family photo frame making activity

With the kids at school, aren’t we all looking for more and more craft ideas to keep them busy and occupied? The photo frame making activity is perfect for kids. And We love this activity because not only is it easy and quick to make- it looks cute and is reusable as well! Making photo frames using a family photo has always been fun for the kids. The class teachers used there ideas and conducted the activity in there classes, some creative teachers used ice cream sticks and some drawing sheets. Students very participating very actively and were excited to make a frame for their family photograph. The teachers helped them with glue and guided them. Children used sparkles and other decorating materials to decorate the frames and the outcome result was beautiful.














Lemonade making activity

We conducted a new activity of making fresh-squeezed lemonade in the school for our pre primary kids and we would like to share ways that you can incorporate learning, into everyday activities that you do with your child.

Lemons can be used in a variety of activities for children. The kids will like using them because they are bright, colourful and fragrant. Start any activity by asking the children what lemons are used for and seeing the answers you get. Then squeeze a few lemons into a tumbler and make lemonade..For kids making fresh lemonade is almost as much drinking it. What, for adults, is tedious work--squeezing lemons--is fun for kids. And so lemonade has the potential to be an independent activity and a treat all at once. We showed them how to extract the juice from the lemons. Even though the children have seen lemons before, they’ve never been given a lemon just to explore at will. We also encourage the children to describe what they sees, smells, hears, tastes and feels throughout the whole process. The kids were very excited and actively involved in the activity. They pour water in the fresh squeezed lemon juice and add sugar and a little salt and after that enjoyed the yummy lemonade.
