Preparation strategy
When asked about their preparation strategy, they shared that their primary focus was on creating a positive learning environment. “As parents, we fostered a positive atmosphere by engaging Ishanvi in various learning activities and maintaining regular communication with her teachers to track her progress. We made sure to address any areas where she needed extra support. Additionally, we attended parent-teacher meetings and school events to stay involved in her educational journey,” said Purva Kshirsagar, Ishanvi’s mother.
Learning through play-based activities
Purva also highlighted the importance of promoting a love for learning through play-based activities. “We integrated learning into everyday activities like reading storybooks, playing with blocks, drawing, and solving puzzles,” she explained. To balance learning with rest, the couple kept the study sessions short—around 30-35 minutes—and ensured that there was enough time for Ishanvi to acquire additional skills when necessary.
Looking ahead, both parents remain committed to building a strong foundation for Ishanvi’s future learning and development. They plan to focus on her cognitive, social-emotional, and physical development to ensure she continues to thrive in all aspects of her growth.
