The learning journey || finding first school for your kid
Hello friends!
Welcome to my blog again. I am glad that you are here. Today I want to discuss with you all what has been going on in my mind for the last two weeks. All about kids first school, their education, their learning journey.
As a parent we always worry about kids future And always want to give them the best. When children grow up a little, the question arises whether they should be admitted to the play group or not, or should they be introduced directly through the formal education system.
For me it is best to start with play school or playland where children can learn new things, especially they start to become socializing. The biggest challenge today is to introduce children to the outside world, teach them to be social, teach them to play with other children, teach them to share. Because nowadays children live with small families. For this reason, I want to apply the concept of playgroup for my child. Earlier I thought that till the age of 3 years, children should play at home, their first education should happen at home, but now I feel that children should also have friends now.
For this I visited almost 10 play schools in the last 2 weeks. And what did I see that in the name of Most of School Play Groups, so much burden is being put on children. I felt that the concept of play group has been left behind and now the school is just doing business.They are just trying to attract parents by showing lots of activities and projects.But the question is that we want to send them there so that they can get out of their comfort zone and learn some new skills while playing.But most of the schools are keeping their play time limited and in some places children are being given daily screen time.
I want such a school where children do not feel the burden of studies at the age of 2. Let them enjoy this thing and learn to be social with other children by laughing and playing. Finally I found a school where they do not give any attraction to parents for admission. They believe in helping kids learn new skills while playing, with a limited fee.And he gets them to do only as many activities as are necessary. He introduces them to playing with clay. They do not want to give the burden of unnecessary projects to parents and children. And they also celebrate all the days and festivals with children only.
And on the other hand, there are schools which want to teach many activities to the children in the very first year like swimming, karrate, skating and many more other activities. as a parents, it also seems that when children are getting such good and big schools where so much is being taught, then we should get them admitted only there. So that children are not left behind in today's competition.
Very nice advise. It took me a while to find a school that I was okay with. We need to be really careful when deciding!
This is the burden I am faced with also seeking the perfect preschool for my baby. I think children at that age can be taught both social skills and other skills because they learn very fast but not be burdened with too much educational materials. Also I am not a fan of too much screen time. Whatever they are watching can be watched at home.

Human life is in stages. There's the time the child will have to learn how to fit into the society by observing the parents and close relatives; then all playing and having fun to grow up with love for the society and others.
Deep educational stuffs are to burdensome for a child of two years. We should not stress their faculty beyond range, let them grow in bits - little by little

Wow, this is a beautiful and interesting work. Children learn rapidly. Colors and figures are the strategy. I like it too much.
Children learn through play. When they are so small, they need those relationships in an informal environment to know what their limits are. They are exploring the world, developing their character and acquiring skills. They have a whole life later to do tasks, it doesn't seem like a good idea to overwhelm them at a stage where they should have fun and play. I think you have chosen a good place and that in the future you will appreciate this decision. 😊
well, I am in the same situation nowadays as My kid will be of 4 years of age and I still dont want him to join those schools. After a long discussion with myself, I decided for the next year. Meanwhile, he is getting a bit of ABCD and numbers and some other basic things from her Mother, Mumma Jani and Dadi Ammi.
You said it right, it is very much tough to select the right school for the kids and on the other hand, it should be under our budget. Good Luck with your decision
As parents, we want the best future for our children but we should not take so much stress in Kinder Garden because the child is already very stressful because he/she goes away from his parents for the first time for such hours, so I think he/she should enjoy and interact more. There should be more activities than Learning, where he/she can laugh openly and play more. After all Childhood is all about happiness and memories.
I think children learn to play and read on their own with time, we should enroll them in a school where there are more physical activities and not too much stress on children in terms of studies.
There is no doubt that most schools today are just a business. I think it is not good to overburden children for the first two years
Choosing a playschool is one of the tough job. It is true that now its a business rather than a friendly atmosphere. Please check the ambiance and the reputation of the school, while giving more importance to play while you learn therapy. Hope your little one gets a nice one.
It's a very important phase of our lives. God has created the kids to be playing and having fun. So, I think the schools which offer more playing and fun activities are always suitable for them to flourish. Too much burden won't be a right strategy. I hope you find the best school. A great topic to be considered for further discussions.

I think it is fine to have the kids start early.
They are curious, excited and full of energy and it's best to have this combination put to work. And I obviously, mean through games and fun exercise. This way they learn and grow strong. But I get it where you are coming from. Being a parent is stressful and kids' growth is always a priority. So, we fear that the school and the activities may burden kids and impact childhood.
The parent has to find the answers by choosing a school that promises a fun childhood and quality education. ☮️❤️
Wow,.this topic is thought provoking.
I will drop a entry soon
Waiting for your entry 😄🙏
The best time to nurture a child into becoming what you want them to be in the nearest future is during the early stage of childhood.
Psychologically, this is when the id, ego and super ego begins to come to play. However, what the child grows up to manifest in the future is depending on what you teach these children during these times.
The id gratifies pleasure, the corrects the id and speaks reality while the super ego talks about rewards and punishment. To ensure successful growth, proper care and corrections must be made during these times.
It is a well known fact that there are two major agents of socialization which re the family and school.
The family takes proper care of these id, ego and super ego.
During the school if proper care is not taken, the child may forget their roots and pick up the attributes they get from school, wether good or bad.
Based on this explanations above, I will say that i do not support a school which is entirely based on having fun at the age of two.
Learning through having fun is the best mode of learning. However, I think that the mode of learning should not entirely be fun. Corrections should be made where necessary through very lovely mild discipline (to remind them of the super ego).
A child who always gets what they want and is always having fun while learning will always remain at the id stage of development and will not grow if proper measures are not taken.
Thank you.
Really some schools are only showing different from other school actually they have zero if we say. I would like to educate my child in future with govt school, it's better to get only certificate from school and educate at home. by the way you shared good content with us.
This is what happened to me. I first sent my child to Playgroup to adapt to others and learn a little about letters and numbers. But it turns out that's not quite right, in fact I still have to send my child to private school again. I know what is most important for my child, privacy or adaptation, which I prioritize. Sorry if my comment is wrong🙏
