Today morning we all left for school - Amma to b-school, Anna to Primary School and Me to Play school. Mine is obviously the toughest and I am assuming I don’t have to explain why.
I was told it is a play school but the games that they play are not so interesting. We kids sit on a chair and then the teacher reads some rhyme which we keep repeating like a Talking Tom, same stuff happens for A, B, C, D,…or stories….it is very boring. I did check with my friends in our society and they have the same issue with their play school, in fact my sixth sense says it is a global issue and not just a local problem.
I am working with my friends to come up with a Play School wish list, I guess it is time all play schools have X-Box or at least Wii Nintendo installed, Mobile or Tabs loaded with latest games should be provided to all kids, the play school premise should be more like a gaming arcade (something like Amoeba). BTW, I am ok with learning rhymes but you can’t teach us “Jack and Jill went up the hill” inside a matchbox sized room, you should take us to the hill and give us some practical experience. Learning about Animals should be in a Jungle or at least a Zoo. We hate coloring on a small piece of white paper, we need bigger canvas ..may be the walls will work. Anyways, as I said I am working with my peers and will soon come up with a list.
Additionally, one of my friends suggested - once we publish our list we should go on a “No Milk” strike till they fulfill our demands. I love milk so I didn’t like his idea, I have suggested roti and vegetable strike instead or the best would be just cry, it works, really trust me…even elders do that !!
One good thing about the school, they helped me make a nice Appa’s day card. This Appa’s day I am planning to let him watch TV, I am sure he will be thrilled with his gift. Happy weekend folks and do help me in my fight against play school
