Heart to HEART
Hello Parents! Children need good role models to emulate and inspire them to achieve greatness. And what better role model than Mahatma Gandhi, Father of the Nation who masterminded and won India's freedom struggle from the imperial Great Britain's exploitative rule?In the past few issues of the Kidzone section, we have been featuring excerpts from Growing Up with the Mahatma authored by Dr. Swati Popat Vats, president of the Early Childhood Association of India and the Podar chain of preschools. This richly illustrated book presents inspiring stories from the life of the Mahatma with each chapter narrating one of the many 'avatars' of Gandhiji and lessons to learn from them. The avatars include animal activist, fashion stylist, teacher, journalist, fitness expert, social worker, doctor, barrister and chef. Moreover chapter-end there are several activities for children to write a story, solve puzzles and a books quiz.This month we present an excerpt from the chapter 'Mahatma inspires you to become a social worker'.
