“Health is hearty, health is harmony, health is happiness.”

Instilling healthy eating habits in early childhood is a powerful way to teach preschoolers how to choose nutritious foods for their entire lives. Little chefs of playgroup section at Witty World Bangur Nagar celebrated “Healthy Bhel Making Day” on Thursday, 5^th December 2019. 

The children had already been informed to bring necessary ingredients/ materials for the activity from their home. All the children enthusiastically took part in the activity. It was amazing to watch the children role play being master chefs and preparing healthy bhel with their teachers. The children were very proud of their creations and were eager to taste it. They enjoyed sharing and eating the healthy bhel with their peers and were pleasantly amazed to see how easily such a tasty and colorful dish could be made by simply mixing chopped vegetables like tomatoes, cucumber and boiled corn in a bowl, and adding salt to taste and garnishing it with coriander leaves which they had brought along. It surely was a fun filled cooking experience.

Dramatization of ' The Thirsty Crow' by Playgroup and Nursery section at Witty World, Udaipur

Black as the night,

Sharp as a needle,

 taking its flight, 

A sight so evil.

Keep watch over your nest for the Crow is just a thief;

 He will get you at your best,

 for the Crow is so unique.’

           On Tuesday, December 03, 2019, children of Playgroup and Nursery were introduced to 'Crow' and were shown the dramatization of the story “The Thirsty Crow”. They enjoyed the story telling done by the teacher who brought voice modulation to make it more relatable. They were happy to put stones in the water and then saw water coming up, as a part of dramatization, the hand puppet crow drank water and flew. It was an effective learning tool because it involved the kids intellectually, physically, socially and emotionally. The kids were amused to see it all.
