Dear Parents,
Welcome to the FirstCry Intellitots Newsletter!
We still can’t believe it’s March already! Time sure flies by when you have little tots around, eager to learn and grow. February was no different. From having a jolly time on Vasant Panchmi and Valentine’s Day occasions to expanding their knowledge horizon on National Science Day, our tots sure had plenty of fun.
As their creativity soared with our activity days, we also made sure that their logical thinking and motor skills grew. Let’s take a sneak peek at the unlimited fun they had at FirstCry Intellitots centres.
Vasanth Panchami
In Hindu tradition, Saraswati, the Goddess of knowledge and wisdom, is worshipped pan India on the occasion of Vasant Panchami. It is believed that yellow is the Goddess’s favorite color, for it speaks of nature’s bounty and agricultural fields. This Hindu festival also marks the arrival of the spring season. This year, FirstCry Intellitots centres virtually celebrated this auspicious day on 5th February with a bundle of enthusiastic tiny tots. On the occasion, children enjoyed making beautiful crafts, like colorful kites and yellow flowers using thermocol balls.
Valentine’s Day
A day to appreciate the love and warmth, Valentine’s Day is an international celebration loved by every second person. This day teaches us to be compassionate and have empathy for others. FirstCry Intellitots celebrated this special day with the tots through online sessions. The children were excited to make some beautiful cards and crafts for their loved ones. The motto of the celebration was to teach children the meaning of love. The little champs were awed to know that love has no bounds, and the love they give to their parents, grandparents, sisters, brothers, and teachers is worth celebrating!
International Mother Language Day
In 2000, on an initiative by Bangladesh, the United Nations declared 21st February as the International Mother Language Day to promote linguistic and cultural diversity.
Firstcry Intellitots centres celebrated International Mother Language Day by engaging children in learning activities. The tots had great fun decorating a smiling Earth with colorful petals that had alphabets written on them using rainbow colors. Alphabets taken from different languages, such as Kannada, Hindi, Tamil, Bengali, Chinese, French, etc., were written on the petals. Moreover, teachers explained to the little ones the significance of languages. They also learned that promoting languages is the most powerful way to preserve and develop cultures worldwide. The fun day ended with the little tots introducing their names in their respective mother tongues. The day had its fair share of cute moments!
