Play Schools suggests parents for spending quality time with kids, a survey by Genius Kids India

Mr. and Mrs. Basu plan to go for weekend trips once or twice a month with their children so that they feel their parents are giving enough time to them. In fact, Mr. and Mrs. Basu arrange such trips as they feel guilty for not able to give enough time to their kids daily. Both have hectic working schedules. Maybe, their policy works some extent, but Mr. and Mrs. Basu should concentrate more on quality parent time. A renowned day care in Kolkata thinks that a few minutes a day is more essential than a special trip in every few weeks. Parenting development centres in Salt Lake encourages such trip but also suggests parents to spend some time with their kids apart from teaching them at home every day. Some parents offer toys to their kids and spend money in order keep them happy. However, parent should interact with their kids or do something jointly. Like Mr. and Mrs. Basu, parents who are busy with their work all day feel tired when they come home and may not want to play with their children until the weekend.

Instead, parents should try doing household chores together, reading a story or tossing a ball or cleaning a room. Quality parent time means you involve your child in household activities as much as you can. A kindergarten school in Garia suggests that teaching moments do not require planning every time. Suppose, a child takes interest of a specific activity and hence, parents should explore the same activity for teaching. Like this, montessori training institute in Kolkata follow the parent effectiveness training, which includes a range of methods. The training is designed to boost communication and develop understanding between kids and caregivers at home. For example, a crèche cum abacus learning in Kolkata recommends active listening as one of the tool of good parenting. Active listening refers that a parent helps a child to find words that he or she needs to express something.

A childhood educator always believes parents can act as a guide and observer but a child should be allowed to make his or her own choice. Moreover, when one spends time with one’s kid, one should think of simple tasks and bring them into the habit of discovering something. For instance, a parent should take his or her kids while going to a market. As one buys something, one should explain the difference between lettuce and cabbage. Parents should elaborate why bread is kept at the top of the bag. Again, parents may ask their child to set the table and involve in the food preparation. It is about involving children to day-to-day activities. Children can be allowed to sort out individual's clothing for laundry. Even you as a parent can encourage kids to draw small pictures on the calendar on everyday’s weather. End of the month students can calculate number of sunny, rainy, and cloudy days. Thus, caregivers should practice an array of activities with their children so that they enjoy spending time with parents.

Genius Kids celebrated merry of Janmashtami with kids

Lord Krishna was naughty but was very jolly, clutching and loving. He was described as a playful boy making fun with his companion. Lord Krishna's childhood was full of enchanting incidents and thus kids like him very much. Kids love listening stories about Lord Krishna. Parenting development centres in Kolkata advise parents to tell stories of Krishna's childhood to their children, that can be interesting to them. Toddlers always concentrate hard and give a patience hearing to those stories in which kids relate themselves. Hindus refer toddlers 'Bal Krishna'. Thus, Janmashtami celebration with kids can be significant and enjoyful. Futuristic play schools in Garia exposes children to different cultures at the early age so that they can start learning value of a culture. In addition, they appreciate a culture instead of dismissing them.

A renowned day care in Salt Lake emphasizes on communicating different culture both implicitly and explicitly. Communication includes the activities and themes that one plans for a particular culture, custom and ritual of a religion. Pre schools have celebrated Eid and are now celebrating Janmashtami. They have plans for ensuing Durga puja, Diwali and Christmas.

Running up to the Janmashtami, classes and places in the schools' premises were decorated with wall hangings, ribbons, paper-chains and many other materials so that decorations depict the life and stories of Lord Krishna. Like Lord Krishna there are models in the schools, which have dark skin wearing a crown with a peacock feather attached to it and playing the flute. In a top pre-school in Kolkata all boys have dressed up like Lord Krishna while all girls have worn dresses like Radhika as a part of  celebrating Janmashtami. Students have preformed dancing and singing held during cultural programmes portraying childhood activities of Lord Krishna.

A good night care cum birthday party organizer Kolkata arranges movie-fest for celebrating Janmashtami.

Movies will take kids to the journey of Lord Krishna from his birth to the time when he battles out the evil King Kans and to the time when he shows himself as Lord Vishnu, the maker of the universe. Audio-visual movies introduce kids the story of Lord Krishna in an amusing style and educate them to the history of celebrating Janmashtami.  However, parents can celebrate Janmashtami at their home in simple ways with their children. They should assign various jobs to their children while preparing and arranging for Janmashtami puja at their home. They can teach them special prayer of Lord Krishna. Janmashtami celebration varies across regions of India. South Indian households draw footsteps of Lord Krishna with rice flour and make it as if Lord Krishna enters the home. One can follow it or otherwise, one can decorate the deity at one’s home and prepare Lord Krishna's favourite sweets. Parents should ask their children to join in the kitchen while cooking sweets and dishes, which one prepares for Janmashtami.

A Kindergarten school helps to develop scientific thinking in kids

Miss Sarita Bhowal (name changed), a teacher of one of the best pre and primary play schools in Kolkata asked her students to come on the school's ground because she would not like to take a class in a four wall class room. Miss Bhowal planned to make her students familiar with various objects that they learned in the textbooks. She asked her students to make two lists on nature-made stuff and manmade objects from whatever students can see. Likewise, students make a list of trees, flowers, grass, fly, clouds, etc while they also list building, fence, cars, cycles, all the outdoor play sets, etc. Many teachers at pioneering play schools and various creche in Kolkata organize a variety of attractive and challenging situations, which trigger mind of a young child to observe, explore and experiment many things.

Aims of the childhood science curriculum are to promote and develop scientific thinking among children. Children often express curiosity about the world and they want to know answers of many questions. Why does the sky look blue? What makes leaves green? How do trees grow? These "why" and "how" make the foundation of a childhood science curriculum. Top daycare & night care like Genius Kids in Garia does not make science to be imparted to the curriculum rather they include the science in a way that students do practice it. At the childhood, a kid aspires to be scientist, not a consumer of science. Miss Soheli Shome, a teacher at montessori training institute in Kolkata says that they allow kids to ask their own queries, collect their own data so that they can come out with wonderful ideas.

Kindergarten schools in Kolkata feel scientific thinking does not progress just by learning various scientific facts. Rather, scientific thinking allows kids to find out answers of their own queries. It gives pleasure learning what great scientists have discovered. However, scientific thinking helps a child to make his or her own invention. Miss Bhowal and Miss Shome, correctly, encourage kids to explore characteristics of water, animals, and insects, properties of plants and life cycles of living objects. Students can experience with different patterns and situations found in nature like seasons, light and shadows, day and night, etc. while they study in the nature. In fact, unplanned events in the classroom and on the playground can be good teaching tools for promoting scientific thinking among kids.

In the persuasion of knowledge only, students often lost their interest and find hard to motivate themselves. Mind it, children, by nature; want to seek out problems to solve. Such attitudes and actions engage them in scientific thinking before they enter a school. Good play schools nurture such attitudes.

Play schools act as a Parent grooming hub

Parents are welcome at their child’s school. A good play school cum parenting development centre in Kolkata believes a parent is the first and primary caregiver of a child. Educators also recognize the important role that all parents do. They ensure every attempt to build a partnership of trust and mutual respect. Parents may feel shy meeting teachers and asking issues related to childcare. Top pre and play schools in Salt Lake follow a number of ploys to make it simple for parents so that they can raise questions and feel relaxed while asking for tips about parenting issues. They teach how parents’ body language should be while meeting people and discussing about the progress of their child.

Teachers at crèche in Garia are careful to share information with parents. Some parents, on the other hand, feel insecure about visiting the centre. They might feel what a teacher will suggest to follow at home they may not be able to carry out. Thus, communication has to be two-way. When parents raise concerns, teachers of a top daycare in Kolkata are advised to be attentive. They suggest tips according to the problems. Parents also love hearing how much of improvement their child has actually made after they have carried out with the suggestions of teachers. Play schools often release a booklet explaining schools’ policies, plans and different facet of childcare, which is handy to encourage rational expectations about their children and feel calm with their parental roles.

Accredited play schools release newsletter regularly describing different problems and remedies. Parents can also share their views and experience in such communiqué. Parent Bulletin Board is also arranged with news clippings on pertinent topics of child and parenting development. Orientation programme organized by play schools is one of the most innovative meet to develop parenting skills. Not only parents, other family members of a child are welcome at the centre so that a healthy rapport with respect and trust develops.  

A play school also communicates current news and topics of interest through its website. Special activities with photographs of students and parents are shared on websites and social media pages so that all family members of a child can enjoy it. However, apart from website, there must be space for parents for their physical meet. There are schools where a room is dedicated for parents, which is called “parents corner” so that they can enjoy chatting while taking tea, coffee and snacks. Even an informal discussion with director and teachers of a play school can also be arranged in such room to bridge the gap between the administration and parents’ forum.

A standard day care in Kolkata like Genius Kids Day Care always introduces different games, books, playing objects, etc. that reveal the diversity that remains in our society. "Babies" a book written by Gyo Fujikawa in the sixties was a prime example of how multicultural activities help kids to realise the understanding of peers and fostering meaningful relationships in both the classrooms and playgrounds.

How to teach discipline without torturing children?

Play schools teach discipline in an innovative learning process; do not follow what Puja Singh did.

 Can you ever think that a private tutor is beating a little child? You cannot but it is the reality. As shown in CCTV camera footage, Puja Singh, a private tutor was kicking and punching a three year old boy at his Lake Town residence in Kolkata. The footage itself was horrifying and shocking. You, as a parent, must be careful while choosing a caregiver for your child.

 A renowned day care or a tutoring centre for kids in Kolkata hates and condemns such incidence. What is at blunder is the prevalent practice of beating children to discipline them. Mind it, a child needs to be nurtured and protected. Montessori training institute in Kolkata and other metros plan for diverse modes of learning such as auditory, visual and kinesthetic. Teachers usually train them in the way in which they learn best.

  Particularly, for a working couple or for a nuclear family, a caregiver for your kid is necessary and essential too. Parents, of course, want the best care for their child from a KG activity centre in Kolkata. However, parents should not perceive a day care as an employee, as they are paying for the service. Instead, they should acknowledge that one of the major components of childcare is the partnership between teachers-parents and the child. It is an affair of professionals and trained teachers of futuristic play school for kids. Best pre schools in Kolkata embraces children in such a way that they become free to make a loving bond with other being without feeling disloyal to their parents.

Genius Kids, one of the top 10 pre or play schools in Kolkata does not believe in disciplining children by only shouting at them, humiliating them and punishing them. Such methods do not work. If it did, disciplinary problems would not be at the top of the list of teachers’ priority. Dr. James Hymes, pioneer in kindergarten school education said, “Discipline is the slow, time consuming task of helping children to see the sense in acting in a certain way.” In opposite to it, one often find both the teachers and children are screaming. This is nothing but an unprofessional approach of teaching what the private tutor Puja Singh followed.

  Top play schools in Salt Lake leaves nothing for home so that you do not require an extra care at home. Students are not encouraged for any home task. Rather, parents are advised to practice the same at home what they have learned at classes. Innovative and different style of teaching keeps children on task but at the same time reduces stress both in the classroom and at home.
