As we move forward and look at
the third and quite important aspect of our UOI (social/ emotional
development), Nursery went on a trip to City park Greater Noida. The purpose of
this trip was to explore our social surroundings with our Peers. Fortunately, it
was a great day.
The weather was beautiful and warm. Children were extremely
excited and as we all know that play is vital to children’s social development,
we began our day with a long run in the park followed by a go on the swings.
During play, children increase
their social competence and emotional maturity. Any child’s success largely
depends on his or her ability to interact positively with their peers and
adults. It enables children to practice both verbal and nonverbal communication
skills, appreciating the feelings of others.
It was amazing to see all the three Nursery’s bond. They were seen
working through conflicts about space, materials and rules positively. The
opportunities provided them today, will certainly help them in monitoring and
discriminating among feelings and emotions which contribute to their beliefs
about their own capacity.
