Today children spent more time with mobiles and video games and in front of computers .Their busy schedule starts early morning with school van.i doubt how comfortable they are in the van which accomodate more children than its capacity.In the school they spent more time in the class room than ground. when they are back from the school tired and exhausted,lunch is waiting for them .Rarely children get someone to have their lunch with as in most houses parents are working. No one is having time to talk to them, share their feelings.Then comes time for classes/tution etc . Most of the time it is seen that children join class as per wishes of their parents .Unfortunately there is no such test available which can figure out their inclination and parent can send their children to the hobby class where learning is a joy,not a duty. This prompted me to think why this. Can we provide any solution to this problem. There came an idea to have a place where all activities related to development of children can be offered.We started PARIS SPARSH ( midas Touch) in lohegaon. Founded in 2012, we were dreaming of a platform where parents,children and anyone who is interested in development of children can come ,offer their services and children get the benefit out of such a venture. Its not money making venture,its a platform for children to express themselves.They can play,draw,write ,colour their ideas,explore their talent ,find out the hidden potential within themselves.We
request people from different field to come to our centre and spent their valuable time with children who can get first hand experience about new field.
We started classes for classical dance, vocal music, musical instruments,drawing so that whoever wants to learn can have a place where quality education is imparted by charging reasonable fee.Our main focus is on ground activities,where children come every evening play different games. they enjoy singing different songs, story telling imbibes moral values,various activities which they do on their own molds them.Its totally learning with fun time.
We also conduct vacation camps for children.Eco friendly Ganesh Idol making workshop,Sky lamp ( AAKASHKANDIL) making workshop.Star gazing ,different treks for little elder children,Trips,study visits etc and much more. There are lot many toys to play and variety of books which children can read without paying anything. Most of these booka and toys were donated by Mrs and Mr Dubhash from Lohegaon.
I personally feel its a combined effort ,anyone who wants to contribute in any form like by spending time,sharing ideas, arranging workshop/ any kind of activity are most welcome.After all our aim is to offer children anything which will help them grow.
