through individualistic pattern of life style, which is dominated by philosophy that life is meant to
enjoy the pleasures at whatever cost this can be managed
and that every problem can be solved through money. A
stage has reached when the element of sharing the pleasure
and pains of others is missing from every community.
With a view to fulfill this extremely important yet,
totally neglected task of nation building Deendayal Research
Institute has taken the initiative of evolving an ideal
model of pre-primary level quality education.
Nanhi Duniya is the foundation stone on which the structure
of human development shall be built. Childhood is the
most precious phase of social life. Hence, Nanhi Duniya
is a noble initiative towards nation building and remodeling
of society.
Nanhi Duniya shall ensure children's closeness to Mother
Nature. The aim of the education imparted at Nanhi Duniya
will certainly be on preparing such sons and daughters
of soil who may be committed to nationalism and humanism.
They may not turn out to be political leaders or administrators
but will definitely prove to be enlightened citizens of
the country who may serve their nation as the torch bears
of moral values and selfless service.
The age to which our pre-primary level school going children
belong (i.e. from three of five years) is best suited
to promote their observation shall add to their capability
of mental receptivity through the approach of 'learning
while playing'. At this age the role of teachers should
be to act as facilitators of learning process. It is worth
consideration that the children going Nanhi Duniya leave
their family environment for the first time.
The moment the children enter Nanhi Duniya they are exposed
to various types of playing devices and equipments. It
is but natural that they get attracted to such thing.
They can opt for any playing device in accordance to their
choice. Close to the entrance is the wing where toys of
different types are placed. This wing/unit contains such
item like colored balloons, colored balls used by kids,
tricycles, single wheel race equipments scatting shoes
etc.
The ears of children are also strong means of increasing
the reception facility. Not only they learn to speak through
the use of hearing faculty but also become aware of different
types of sounds and voices, which help them to develop
their talents of a sound personality in future. Hearing
faculty also helps in the development of memory. The born
qualities of seeing and hearing through the properly directed
learning methods provide an ideal scope for the contribution
of Nanhi Duniya in shaping the personality of a growing
child. It is from this angle that the provision of various
types of audio visual aids is to be made in an artistic
way.
Thus, children will find an opportunity to observe the
way in which the plants and trees grow. This will help
their creativity to bloom in proper direction. The children
going to Nanhi Duniya will acquire knowledge through the
fun of playing with other children.
