Mango Day

“Summers can never be complete without a good feast on delicious mangoes".

The day started on a sweet and juicy note for the little children of Classes Nursery to UKG  as they celebrated “National Mango Day” on 18th July, 2024.
Children were told that Mango is the National fruit of India and is also called the “King of Fruits”. The difference between raw and ripe mango was told and it was also described how raw mangoes are used to make chutneys and pickles.

The objective of organizing the event was to impart information related to Mangoes.

Students learnt that eating fruits is a way to be healthy. 
They gained knowledge on the variety of mangoes. 
They learnt that mangoes help them fight off infection. 
Children’s vocabulary was enhanced.
They learnt to try tasting new fruits and vegetables.
Children learnt names of different mangoes like Dashehari, Langra & Alphonso.

To make the event more enjoyable a Mango Party was held. Each child was ready with a juicy mango and enjoyed the taste and fun of eating a slice or two of a mango with friends and teachers. 

Children were told to save the mango seed for an art activity to be held later. It gave an opportunity to the kids to learn the use of “best out of waste”.
A Mango Corner was also set up which displayed a variety of mango to name a few were the Aam Papad, Amchur-powdered mango, Mango Candies, Mango Juice, shakes and Lassi etc.

It was a session filled with happiness and joy of learning and exploring the creativity in oneself in communion with that around us.
