Forgetful Mum

When mum forgets this is what she says:-

Here is what her little one has to say:-

“Mum,you never forget.You always remember that you forget.So you see mum you never really forget.”

A child can never imagine that his mum can foget.For him mummy knows everything and can do just anything.

Try not to give up

If you give up,you know for certain that you’re going to sink,where as if you keep going,there’s a chance that you may not.

Margaret Atwood,author

Remember the journey could be fun.

Mindfulness…Paying Attention

MINDFULNESS

Hi! Kids

Have you heard the word Mindfulness?Everyone seems to be talking about it these days.Well, it very simply means… Pay Attention…

You do so many things in a day…reading,playing, eating,and many more things,but, what you register or experience and remember will be only the things that you do with attention and focus..the other  things will be a vague memory.

Here is a simple example.If you want to buy a ball and  you enter a toy shop full of all kinds of toys …you will look around and your gaze will stop only when you spot the ball.If someone asks you whether you saw any pretty dolls in the shop your answer would be “I think so.”

Have you wondered why this happens?You can remember or see things what you have your focus on – you will not notice other things even if they are attractive.This is called Mindfulness .

..PAY ATTENTION PLEASE.. to all what is happening around you and what you are doing……

Here are some pictures showing how you can be a MINDFUL ME

How you can do work mindfully:-

1..While playing ,even if you are outdoors ,where you can see various things- be focused on what you want to do.

Work while you work

Play while you play.

       

 

2..While reading or writing try and focus on the book.Your mind may get distracted ,its natural.What you have to do is- be Mindful and bring your attention back.Try and sit on a chair with your book on the table this will help you to be in the present moment.

 

 

 

3..Avoid multi tasking.This means do One thing at a time.

Don’t read and eat at the same time.Be mindful with your food. Sit in one place and eat.They say when you eat- think of the food and its taste.                                              Chew the food. These are healthy habits and only then  you will get full benefit of the food.

4..One of the best ways of being Mindful is being.. First a good listener and only after you have heard the person- you should respond..Listening helps you to Focus and Pay Attention.

5..To keep yourself focused and stress free, it’s a good idea to do a little yoga . This will help you in being “MINDFUL ME” at all times .It will improve your attention span and make you an achiever.

Remember this…PRESENT OVER PERFECT….

PEARLS OF WISDOM:-

…..Learn to be Mindful in all you do.

…..Be Present not Perfect. (Pay attention to whatever you do ,perfection will come automatically.)

…..Learn to be a Good Listener.(This is the first step to Mindfulness)

Being Responsible

RESPONSIBILITY

What is responsibility?

Responsibility means doing things that you are supposed to do and then accepting the positive or negative outcome of your actions.

As children, as you grow up… you are given  small tasks for which you are responsible for.. and you have to face the consequences for not doing those tasks .Here are some examples:-

..You may have to tidy up your room and if you forget everyday, maybe you won’t be allowed your daily screen time.

..You must complete your school homework and remember to pack your bag.If you forget  your teacher gets upset with you,or you may get poor grades.

..You have a pet whom you have to feed daily.What happens if you forget…your pet will fall sick .

We all need to act with responsibility, if we want to live in a safe and happy world.

Cleaning your room as you grow is your responsibility and a way to help mum at home.

Completing your school work,also means respecting your teacher.

Keeping your environment clean at home and at school.

Not only you, but also your mum and every adult too, has to be responsible to become better citizen and have a Happy Earth.

This last year 2020 has been a very difficult time for every one in the world because of the Corona Pandemic

We all have tried to do our bit to help everyone to be safe. However, it’s sad to say but some adults all over the world have  been irresponsible.

They have not followed the 3 simple rules, given to us by Doctors and Health Workers.

…Washing Hands.

…Social Distancing.

…Wearing a Mask.

A simple chart to follow..If you like,you can print it and stick it at the entrance of your home..Remember, this pandemic is here to stay for a long time.We need to take care and live safely and try to make the world a better place.

MY PEARLS OF WISDOM…

…Be responsible.

…Never feel embarrassed to stand for or do the right thing.(Wear a mask at all times when you are outside, even if someone laughs at you.)

…Respect your elders by being responsible, if asked to do something.(Do your school work if asked by your teacher.)
