Greetings folks!
I hope you all are doing great. Just finished my coffee and trying to think of something that one of my uncle told me yesterday.

He lives next to my house and has two beautiful young daughters who seems like lill butterflies to me. One of them just started going to school as it is January. He came to my house and congratulated me for starting my new teaching job. I guess he expected some advice from me.

I felt he is a bit tensed and super excited at the same time for his girl. I can see his uplifted eyebrows and frizzled forehead which was full of question marks!

So, friends I want to share our discussion today. I hope it may be helpful for the people who have school going kids, younger bros or sis, teachers, educators and anyone who can be considered eager to know something new.

However, our discussion took a couple of hours but I want to mention the core issues here. I found him a bit over inquisitive about the very word *Development!* and was giving much concern about it.

Firstly, I told him not to worry much. It will certainly bring nothing fruitful. Rather I told him to focus on small targets and try to achieve them; keeping in mind the overall outcome and utilitarian learning boundaries for the child.

At the first place he didn't get it properly. For that reason I need to explain the thing that he should know what type of educational input is proper and considerably good for his daughter. He should not play role of a father who always puts a full bag of pressure on her head; rather he should play role of a helping father who promotes and facilitates the learning ambience for his loving one.

Getting good marks or grades is good but that should not be the only purpose. Therefore I told him to focus on the *Holistic* *Development* of his child. As his daughter is just started going to school, let her learn form fun and playing. Let her know what school looks like. And try to keep her in a happy mind which will certainly help her to be eager to attempt new educative stuffs happily.

I told him to think it in a different way. If your daughter can't get good marks in Mathematics, don't panic. She must be a super dancer or who knows an artist/writer! Who knows! That is why I told him to focus on holistic dev of his child. I suggest him to spend quality time with her, answer her quarries patiently, motivate her to drawing, playing puzzle or whatever games you think suitable for her.

At early school, the most important focusing point should be on growing her interest towards learning and school. And of course I mentioned him about the pandemic situation which is causing more and more bad impacts upon the early learners.

For the solution I told him to follow the online classes conducted by the school. Moreover, he can use the whole bunch of contents that are available over the internet. Choose suitable contents for her and I think you will see the difference.

At this point of our conversation my Mom came and she told him that her child is an *Angel!* and the whole world is around her, she will learn from anything she comes across.

So, let her be the spectator and try to be her best friend; she will definitely ask you about anything...!

It was getting dark and we had to finish our discussion. I think my advice gave him a new way of looking towards his daughter's early education.

And, I've learned several crucial issues that drives the parents in a tensed situation.

And that's it!
*My* *vote* *is* *for* *Holistic* *Development!*

Thank you for your time. I hope you like it. Or, what els you want to add.

*Chillax!*
