“Nobody
can do for little children what grandparents do. Grandparents sprinkle stardust over the lives
of little children”. ~ Alex Haley.
The relationship between grandchildren and
grandparents is a very special one. Grandparents have magnanimous love for
their grandchildren and pamper them a lot.
The tales that these elderly tell at the
bed time to their grandchildren help them learn a lot about life and also
develop their interest in social events and activities. Many children learn social
values and also virtues like honesty, kindness, gratitude and faith.
Grandparents with their kind advice and
useful tips give a direction to their lives and children develop better insight
into their lives in future. Above all, the blessings and wishes of the
grandparents inspire the children who feel morally boosted and supported to
take up the tougher challenges or tasks in life.
To
give children an opportunity to show their love and appreciation for their grandparents
and also to create an enjoyable, memorable experience for children and their grandparents,
OISH celebrated Grand Parents Day on
17th October 2014. As the Theme was Retro; decorations, music and
every child’s dress were according to the Theme.
The tiny tots have
prepared a programme for their grandparents with a dance and a loving speech. Games were
conducted and prizes were distributed to the winners. The grandparents were
given cards which were made by their grandchildren.
Grandparents
shared some of their experiences with their grandchild and other children as
well.
The
school offered refreshments and token of love to all the grandparents who were
so overwhelmed and happy. They left the school giving many compliments and
blessings to the school and its team.
