do them any good. Keep a good balance of study while play, play time, exploring
time, etc. for the children to have a healthy and educative experience in the

teachers and caretakers who know what they are doing. Be sure of hiring well
qualified faculty, but at the same time make sure that they are capable of
having fruitful interactions with the children and they are able to guide the
children in the right way on their path towards education.

mix of playing toys as well as educative toys. Be sure to add building toys,
dress up toys, etc. Keep toys that cater to the child’s imagination – meaning
the kind of toys with which they can add their imagination for a good play.
Beyond study and play – think beyond the trappings of study and
play. Have facilities in your play school for the children that will enable
them to have real life learning – things like learning manners, music, reading,
caring for a pet, etc.
Cater to your crowd – In a country like India, culture is very
important. You will be well on your way to accomplishing your goals if you have
a good mix of the different cultures of India so that the children learn more
about their and others cultures as well as learn cultural diversity.
Befriend tradition – Just like culture, Indians love their traditions.
Give the children a general understanding of the healthy and good traditions
followed in India.
