Nurturing a scientific MINDSET IN CHILDREN

PW invited parents from JBCN International School, Mumbai (Mulund, Oshiwara, Chembur and Borivali) to share how they help nurture the scientific temperament of their children

- 

Since childhood, we have instilled scientific temper in our daughter Kimaya (class VI) through travel, reading, music, and independent learning. Globetrotting wasn't just about sightseeing but also about navigating real-world challenges. From handling immigration and check-ins to navigating us as parents in new cities, she learned to analyze situations and problem-solve at an early age. Calculating time zones has been her all-time favourite game. Books are another pillar, shaping her ability to question, reason, and explore beyond the obvious while music has taught her to recognise patterns and develop emotional intelligence. Above all, we encourage her to think independently” — Brinda Kunal Kathrani, Early Years Educator
