Little Storytellers Activity – August 2025
The Kindergarten Department organized the Little Storytellers activity to encourage children to practice storytelling. This helps promote holistic development in areas such as intellect, emotions, language, and social skills. Additionally, it instills moral and ethical values in the children.
The activity takes place every Friday after the “Moral Values Bring Happiness” session. Children from each classroom take turns telling stories to their friends.
Besides building their confidence in public speaking, this activity also helps develop good personality traits in the children.
