Bullies come in all sizes. Sometimes they are merely 2 feet tall and have a few teeth missing.

When a child says, “nobody plays with me” you as a parent would think of tens of reasons in a jiffy. But the one thing we rarely consider is group-ism or bullying at even preschool level.

“We don’t want to play with you!”

Ouch! The feeling of being left out or being pushed-around can be just as painful for kids as in adulthood.

While most parents are aware of school bullying being rampant in late elementary schools, but, believe it or not, bullying among pre-schoolers is more common than you think. We think these kids are too young for the kind of tormenting we associate with bullying. Our youngest and most vulnerable age group, the toddler and preschool crowd are also victim to little-kid bullying.

When Ayaan, brought home his class picture. He pointed from one smiling child to the next, naming them, “that’s Rhea, that’s Thavish, that’s Reyan, that’s…a bad boy”. He opened up to his mother slowly, about how his classmate never allowed Ayaan on the trampoline; snatched his cookies during snack-time and occupied his place during circle time.

Gosh! Before an enlightening episode with his school picture, Ayaan refused to go to fellow birthday parties and his parents thought it must be overwhelming and loud. He refused to get in the carpool and we assumed he wanted mommy to drive him to school. Time and time again he gave subtle hints that his adults failed to notice.

Children at such tender age very rarely articulate their precise trouble. It is extremely important that we as adults read between the lines (without jumping to quick conclusions / making hasty decisions) and keenly observe any persistent unusual behavior.

There’s no telling what’s to come when winter begins. The cold and the chills don’t have to keep your kids home but instead welcomed with a few precautions.

Keep your preschool going children safe, warm, and healthy through the coldest months by following these simple safety tips.

Food

Provide your kids with healthy food to strengthen their immune system. Serve healthy foods such as vegetables, fruits, nuts, and fish. Drinking milk with probiotics can also help build his body’s defences.

Caution from infections

Eliminate the breeding places of disease spreading infectants by keeping the ground clean and dry. Make your house insect proof.

Proper clothing

“There is no bad weather, only inappropriate clothing”. Dress them warm and protected with woolen jackets, stockings, mufflers. The body’s own heat is the best way to combat the cold outside.

Personal hygiene

Explain to your toddler to cover his mouth when coughing or sneezing; to use tissues (not their sleeves!) to wipe their noses, and to dispose of tissues properly as they are the entry points for flu and cold. Pre-empt viruses and bacteria by frequently washing your hands.

From trying not to overdo the little one’s Halloween costume, to rejoicing every Indian festival with utmost grandeur. As parents of the 21st century, trying to raise global citizen, we often find ourselves wondering how and what festivals should be introduced to our little people.

While we welcome the celebrations of the west, some of us secretly worry about how we can best imbibe Indian values and gift our children the bounties of Indian culture.

CULTURE EDUCATION – WHAT ROLE DOES YOUR CHILD’S PRESCHOOL PLAY IN IT?

In this age of westernization, it is important that we find strike a balance between being modern and rooted in our culture. While Parents can only teach their child about their own culture, preschools play an important role in making children learn about different cultures, countries, and continents; allowing them to grow and become a modern, yet rooted individual. With examples and hands-on experiences, learning about festivals and celebrations at school leaves a great impact on children.

The real purpose of cultural education is to imbibe great values in leaders of tomorrow. Different traditions and cultures can teach many important lessons of life that your children will surely benefit from.

Three things your child will learn from festivals and celebrations at school:

1. It multiplies the joy of togetherness and allows them to bond and share the beauty of every festival.
2. It beautifully communicates the differences and similarities of a vast number of communities, allowing children to appreciate and celebrate the same.
3. It harmoniously unites children of all backgrounds to respect and understand the values of another’s religion allowing them to be global citizens in the true sense.

These experiences teach children to embrace differences and grow into becoming responsible global citizens that respect all religions and regions. So choose a playschool for a child that will make him/her an individual that by all means is a global citizen.
