While your child is great at maths and science she/he may struggle when it comes to speaking her/his mind. You know she/he is a brilliant student and pays attention in class, then what could go wrong? Don’t know how to help your little human? Parents play a huge role in children’s lives. Brimming with solicitude they move beyond parental roles. They are their children’s not only first friends but also foremost teachers. Therefore, there is absolutely nothing that a parent can’t teach their child. We are aware that soft skills cannot be only taught within four walls. It extends beyond the classroom. So, let’s dive into the arena of people’s skills and know different ways to inculcate soft skills in children.
Workshops conducted on THE POWER OF PLAY & TALK

Our kids are listening.
They hear you talk about what you really think about their school teacher.
They know what you say about their aunt when you leave the family gathering.
They know what you think about someone who looks or acts differently because they heard the way you giggled or sneered about that person in the grocery store.
You can read all the books on kindness to them. You can talk their ear off on the value of kindness. But when they hear you judge and shame, gossip or ridicule, you’re normalizing it for them. You are teaching them that it is OK.
Kids don’t learn how to tease or bully in a vacuum. Gossip, disrespect or cruelty don’t come naturally. They are learned behaviors. And many of them learn it in their very own home.
Because our kids are listening.

Children who can easily distinguish between right and wrong are children who will recognize when someone is being treated unfairly, and say something about it ..Though not everything is black and white, it is important to create an environment where your children are taught often about the right and wrong way to treat people, to respond to people, and to view people !!

I found this write up quite logical and an eye opener..
They bring nine chairs for ten children, and they tell the children that the winner is the one who gets the chair, and whoever remains without a chair is out of the game.
Then they reduce the number of chairs each time and a child comes out every time
Until one child remains and he is declared the winner
The child learns the culture of “Myself, myself, and in order to succeed, I must remove others.”
And in Japanese kindergartens, they play the game of chairs too
And they also come with nine chairs for ten kids, with a difference
That they tell the children that you have more chairs
If one of you remains without a chair, everyone loses
All the children try to hug each other
So that ten children can sit on nine chairs
And then they reduce the number of chairs successively
With the rule remaining that they must make sure that no one remains without a chair, or else they will all lose
The child learns culture.
"I cannot succeed without the help of others to succeed"
From Exclusion to Inclusion

How smartphones have changed our lives completely and overuse is a very real problem for a lot of people.
This book is all about smartphones.
PS:The most important thing for little people in the 0- 3 range is interactions with human beings. Anything that disrupts the timing, the meaningfulness, or the emotional quality of that interaction can have consequences on both parents and kids and their relationship.
With smartphones, we have a world of distractions at our fingertips. It’s time to acknowledge that our devices can negatively impact our lives — and we have to MAKE A CHANGE.
There’s nothing more addictive than looking into a young child’s eyes, listening to them, and learning about their world.❤

आप अगर अपने बच्चे को स्कूल भेजते हैं तो ध्यान दीजिए....
वो वक्त गया जब कहा जाता था कि "हर बाला देवी की प्रतिमा, बच्चा बच्चा राम है। "
कामान्ध नरपिशाचों को मासूमों के साथ हैवानियत का खेल खेलने का शौक सर चढ़ गया है।ऐसे में माता-पिता के रूप में अब हमारे दायित्व सिर्फ ये नहीं रह गये कि हम अपने बच्चों से सिर्फ ये पूछें :-
🌈.. लंच फिनिश किया था ?
🌈क्या पढ़ाया गया आज?
🌈कोई नोटिस मिली है क्या?
🌈डायरी दिखाओ?
🌈ड्रेस कितना गन्दा किये हो?
🌈किसी टीचर ने शिकायत की तो पिट जाओगे
🌈बड़ों की और टीचर्स की हर बात माना करो।
🌈ज्यादा बातें नहीं।
🌈स्कूल की बकवास बता कर मुझे तंग मत करो।
🌈आदि आदि पूछने से कई गुना जरूरी है अपने बच्चे से प्रतिदिन ये पूछना कि:-
💥बस ड्राइवर ने कुछ कहा है?
💥टीचर कैसे चीयर करती है तुम्हें?
💥टॉयलेट जाती हो तो स्वीपर तो नही होता वहां?
💥क्या आज कुछ गलत या अजीब फील हुआ तुमको?
💥कोई प्राब्लम तो नहीं है तुम्हे स्कूल में?
💥अगर तुम सही हो तो टीचर हो या प्रिंसिपल, किसी से मत डरना।
💥कोई बडा़, घर हो या बाहर, कुछ गलत करने को कहे तो उसकी बात कभी मत मानना।
💥बिल्कुल भी मत डरना।
💥मुझे पूरा विश्वास है तुम पर।💥तुम बिल्कुल भी अकेले/अकेली नहीं हो।
💥कोई धमकी दे, बेखौफ मुझे बताओ।
💥स्कूल तुम से बढ़कर नहीं।
⭐कुछ इस तरह से बच्चों को आत्मविश्वासी बनाएं और उन्हें बिल्कुल lower k.g. से ही गलत टच के बारे में रोज aware कर के स्कूल भेजे।
⭐क्यूंकि समाज अति से ज्यादा गंदा हो चला है। ऐसे में जागरुक माता-पिता बने, बच्चों के साथ friendly रहें अनुशासित वो समय के साथ स्वयं हो जाएंगे।
⭐उन्हें हरपल अहसास कराएँ कि वो कितनी अहमियत रखते हैं आपके लिये।
⭐उन्हें इतना जोड़े खुद से कि वे कभी कुछ गलत भी कर जाएँ तो सबसे पहले स्वयं आपको बताएँ।

Dear Parent,
Little Blossoms encourage children and adults to team up and grow together which helps to strengthen these soft skills and social skills for kids.
What are Soft Skills?
Soft skills are often referred to as “people skills” or “non-cognitive skills” – essentially, the skills that are difficult to directly measure and the ones you can’t necessarily teach out of a book.
Below are three prime examples that your child can get into the habit of doing that will help develop soft skills. While these skills may take a while to learn, the effects are long-term and helpful in many life skills and experiences. Let’s dive in!
1. Encourage Your Children:
People require attention but more importantly, they crave encouragement. We as adults need to congratulate them on the progress they've made, as well as encourage them to keep going.
2. Demonstrate Social Skills:
If you teach your child proper people skills when they're young, the lessons will stick with them for a lifetime.
3. Acknowledge When They're On Time:
As parents, we often don't have trouble telling our kids when they're doing something wrong, but when it comes to pointing out the things they are doing right, like being on time, we tend to lag.
Soft Skills In Action At Little Blossoms:
Little blossoms encourage families to get together to practice these soft skills. In our programs, we take "Snack Chats". During our " Snack Chats", we touch on soft skills and share stories and experiences with other learners. Topics include things like what happens when you make a mistake or what do you do if you have been griefed in Minecraft( like trolling, but in Minecraft).
Embedded in all our programs are lessons that help kids build confidence, resilience, social skills, and a positive relationship.
Unfortunately, many of the soft skills are not taught in schools, as the focus is on hard skills like math or science because these are well-defined and measurable. Soft skills, on the other hand, revolve around less measurable skills like manners, self-control, empathy, etc. But teaching soft skills at an early age or enrolling them in-home tuition has been found by researchers to be greatly beneficial to the development of children. It is just as important as hard skills for leading a productive adult life.
If you'd like your child to branch out and practice these soft skills for kids in real life please join us!
We hope to see you at Little Blossoms one day!
PS: To know about the workshops kindly DM !
Please let us know your requirement and we can help you.
Feel free to call for any queries!
Thank you
Best,
