Faster than a speeding bullet

When Aashish first came to the Balwadi six months ago, he was shy and withdrawn and would not participate in any of the activities in class. Today, he is so enthusiastic about his classes that he wants to be at the Balwadi even on a Sunday!

The Pratham Balwadi program helps preschool children develop good school habits. The Balwadi provides a safe and fun learning environment for the children to learn the importance of manners and working as a group. A volunteer supervisor trained by Pratham leads young children in memorizing poems, learning stories, and recognizing shapes, colors, and numbers.

Aashish’s teachers tells us that he is a quick-witted and intelligent child who thinks for himself and is willing to learn new things. That will come in handy for the future because Aashish wants to be a superhero when he grows up!

Thank you all for coming together to support Aashish!!
