schedule. Vary the schedule with fun activities and ensure that you get enough

rest as it is going to be very warm.

Bond with friends and relatives. Avail all opportunities for social interaction.

*Decorate the waste plastic bottle and use as pots to grow plants and bring it to school.

Read as much as you possibly can. Visit the local library or bookshop. Select 8 to 10 books that you will enjoy reading.

Visit the supermarket in order to practice money handling and basic math

transactions. Remember that plastic bags must not be used because they are dangerous for children and bad for the Earth.

Enjoy a good water swim. Enrol for professional swimming classes if required.

*Be vigilant of safety at all times and ensure adult supervision. You must always be aware of saving yourself from excessive exposure to the sun and its hazards. Use sunscreen lotion, wear sun visors and avoid looking directly at the sunlight.

It is important that you keep yourself hydrated by drinking a lot of fluids and eating fresh fruit and vegetables. Avoid street food as rising temperatures encourage food contamination and decomposition. Remember to carry filtered water in water bottles for any outdoor activities.

Make indoor experiences fun by inviting friends and organizing small group activities such as, drama, dumb charades etc.

Play indoor board games like chess, carom, monopoly, scrabble etc.

Undertake to do one household chore like watering the plants or washing the car to inculcate a sense of responsibility.

Rise early in the morning, go for morning walks, exercise, read the morning newspaper and do crosswords, mazes, quizzes etc. Keep abreast of general knowledge and current affairs.

Art and craft projects are ideal to do at this time of year.

Limit the use of television and the internet. It is a great source of innovation and inspiration only if used discreetly.

Watch informative channels such as National Geographic, BBC and

Discovery. You can discuss the programs at the dining table or during family time.
