Social Upbringing thru Preschool years

We have been reading, observing, experimenting with the golden age children of age 2 to 6 years. We have observed that the child is very well protected at home under the environment of parent, grand parent and other elders surrounding the child.

The child needs to explore, experiment, engage in all the environment surrounding the child. A caring and exposure in safe environment will develop the following qualities which are necessary for the child's emotional, social growth.

The child need to mix with the children of the same age, child of younger age and child of elder age. The child need to spend time with the children of mixed age group.

The fear of children to get along with the new children develops capability of social go getting, understanding that other children are also part of the society and all of us need to get along.

Develops in children the ability of team working, which is a necessary part in life of grown up adult as well.

Therefore it is necessary and beneficial for the society at large to have the child go to preschool, wherein the child gets a safe, caring environment to complete the task of Explore, Experiment, Engage with the new surrounding, making the child ready to deal with new environs, location, people, situations etc. etc.

Developing children as Good Citizen

Dear Parents Upbringing of children is very challenging task. It is not based on instructions. Parents and elders have a very big role in this journey. Parents need to demonstrate right behavior to the children. A very simple things such as getting water for drinking on their own and not asking to be served. Elders need to demonstrate to child that they also take the water on their own and not demand/ask. The child observes this behavior and works as per this.

Preschool for Best Upbringing

The life style of the society has changed phenomenally in India. The social fabric is changed. Earlier days we used to have a family of structure, wherein all the elders used to be staying in one big family The children used to learn by observing elders, siblings, neighbor. All the skills required as such gross motor skill, fine motor skill, cognitive skill, socializing, language skills used to get developed without much input from the parents. The changed life style is such that this very foundation of the great family is gone. Now the parents are staying in various cities away from the big family staying together. The family structure is now changed to mother, father and child. Both parents are working and hence child is left to day care home OR with the home maid. Children learn by observation and not by teaching. With parents, siblings, neighbors not be available for observation and learning children slowly get attracted to other means of learning i.e. Television, mobile...
