[Jagriti55] #7 Ready to gobble up some new perspectives 🧸

All of them were busy with the colours, papers and all the sundry material they had collected from the garden. I plonked myself in one corner and announced, "I can teach you how to make the green puppet, if you want". None came. With a smile inside me, I tried again after some time, "I can teach you how to make your puppet look awesome!" None came. Little later the persistent me tried again, "I can teach you a new, better technique to make puppets". One little girl came to me, shoved her puppet into my face and said, "Uncle I can teach you how to make THIS."
Over the years children have persistently taught me this: "Uncle, I have an engine inside me - that goes the whole day chuk chuk chuk chuk - like the (video game) character 'pac-man', gobbling away every bit of learning lined up in my life. Very similar to the voracious hogging by the caterpillar. Just because I am not yet flying don't start feeding me. I can cause, construct, and create my own learning. I'll chrysalis into a butterfly.


JAGRITI - lets chrysalis our parenting into a butterfly, lets gobble up fresh perspectives into our children and their learning, growing journey.

[Jagriti55] Webinar on FEAR - today 9pm

Image
Parents, Children and FEAR Have you heard / said this: "There is nothing to be afraid of!"  Well how about instead of saying NO to fear, we get down to KNOWING fears In this webinar We would approach fears first from an  acceptance  perspective. "Its alright to have any fear". Remember fear lurks in the dark corners of our mind - where logic seldom works. Our assertion is that once the child is assured of this - the child would be more open to dealing with it. Then we spend time understanding fears, turning them around through multiple looking glasses. Then we hand it over to the kid and say - "Its all yours. Enjoy it, love it, embrace it, hug it, kiss it!
