The Kindergarteners were helped to perform the activity of growing microgreens at their homes. Teachers explained to them the importance of taking care of our planet earth, loving it and keeping it green. Discussion about the Coronavirus was also done with students by asking them the reason for being at home. Hence, to keep away from diseases, the importance of keeping ourselves healthy and eating lots of green vegetables and healthy food were also discussed. Children enthusiastically performed the steps of growing a plant and were asked to give it little water every day.
