Pre School –A Foundation that Builds Child's Future

Someone has rightly said, till a mother doesn't cut her emotional umbilical chord, a child will never step ahead with confidence. And this is where the Pre School concept has stepped in to build that assurance in both - child as well as the mother. And it explains why Pre Schools have gained a lot of momentum and popularity in recent years. It is an environment, which follows a set curriculum but does not let the child feel that he/she is studying in a strict school atmosphere. Subjects like Art, Languages and Mathematics are introduced through objective means or play-way methods. Making a child comfortable without the mother and making him/her enjoy the school environment is the most important objective Pre Schools follow. ??

A Pre School works towards shaping the overall personality of the children while preparing them for higher classes and nurturing them to be good human beings. Apart from age appropriate development through their curriculum, Pre Schools also organize extra-curricular activities like story time, yoga and sports, art and crafts, cooking sessions, music, dance, theatre and so on to achieve this goal. And parents do experience a remarkable improvement in their child's personality, communication and confidence levels.

Apart from teachers/ facilitators these schools also have attendants, a medical room, rest rooms and cafeteria to take care of a child's daily needs. Some also provide lunch and transportation facilities to children. Depending upon your schedule and the child's needs, you have an option of choosing whether you wish to drop the child to school yourself or send the child by school transport.

While selecting a Pre School for your child, it is necessary to keep a few important points in mind. When you visit the facility, talk to the Director and teachers, who would be interacting with the child on a day-to-day basis. See if the classrooms are designed keeping the age of the child in mind, whether they are equipped with appropriate facilities. Also check the rest-rooms, dining and extracurricular activity rooms and check whether your child is satisfied and happy being there. Ask every question which occurs to you because you should not be burdened with thoughts of your child's safety, happiness and progress later. ??
