An educationist on Friday emphasised the importance of purposeful activities to keep children intellectually stimulated during the winter breaks.

“Winter breaks are not just about leisure; they are a valuable time to enhance a child’s cognitive abilities and creativity,” Dr. Ayesha told a private news channel, urging parents to consider activities that foster both the academic and personal development of kids.

She suggested incorporating structured learning opportunities into the break, including reading challenges where kids explore diverse genres or even take on writing projects to express their thoughts.

She stressed the need for family engagement in educational games, as it not only reinforces learning but also strengthens the parent-child bond.

Board games, puzzles, and even strategic video games can be valuable when enjoyed together.

Sadia also recommended hands-on learning for children through experiments and projects. “Simple science experiments related to winter phenomena can ignite curiosity.

From creating a mini-snowstorm in a mini jar to studying the science behind frost, these activities stimulate a child’s interest in the world around them.

Similarly, she said art and music also contribute significantly to cognitive and emotional development of a child. Encourage kids to explore their creative side through winter-themed art projects or learning a musical instrument during the break, she noted.
