The event witnessed a significant turnout of children who enthusiastically showcased their hidden talents through various activities. The Mela aimed to bring together Grade 1 children and their mothers, providing them with an opportunity to engage in developmental skill activities.
The Mela featured an array of stalls, each dedicated to a specific developmental skill. At the Reception counter, participants registered for the event. The Physical Development stall assessed the children’s physical abilities, while the Intellectual/Cognitive Development stall evaluated their thinking skills. Other stalls focused on Language Development, Math Preparation, and Socio-Emotional skills. Moreover, the Kids Corner, a favorite among the children, offered drawing activities to enhance their fine motor skills.
