JAMMU, Sept 20: Humming Buds, the Preschool Chain of Model Academy organized a ‘Value Education Week’ to provide effective means to the children to understand and learn character-building principles.
Ruchika Gupta, Project Director, Humming Buds presented welcome address and said that the values imparted to children today will have a direct bearing on the health of the society tomorrow.
The Week comprised of 5 values– Good Touch and Bad Touch, Honesty, Sharing, Patience and Kindness.
For the topic Good Touch and Bad Touch, a fun animated puppet video was shown to the kids to sensitize them about their private parts which no body should be allowed to touch. Honesty was reinforced with the story of Pinocchio followed by a teacher talk about how telling one truth saves us from many lies. Children shared their favourite toy in school with their friends for the topic sharing. An award winning short movie on sharing was specially screened for them.
A ‘Kindness Quilt’ was prepared by the children in which drawings by them about a kind act were pasted together. They were also asked to be kind at home, school and to the world around them. To imbibe patience as a virtue children sat for a yoga session and chanted ‘Aum’ for relaxation and peace. They were shown an animated movie-‘The Goose That Laid A Golden Egg’ and explained how the farmer killed the goose by being impatient and wanting all the eggs at one time.
