Host: Shaifali
Attended: Bakul, Sowmya Reddy, Prajakta
Absent: Ashwini, Supraja, Soumya Prakash
Minutes of the meeting:
Dates: October 21st, for anniversary meet. Details in mail.
Next meet idea by Prajakta: Out of this world pizza place meeting with kids.
November and December hosts to be decided, since its winter and people will be travelling.
Every last Monday to be Portland Sahelis meeting day for every month.
Since member count is low in winter, for November, the meeting will be held earlier.
Since, Portland Saheli is primarily for those women who are homemakers or students, the number of members in Portland Saheli will always be in flux.For instance, Students who finish their studies take up jobs.
Congratulations Nisha on your new job!
The topic of discussion was: whether extra curricular activities are required for preschoolers?
There were different viewpoints on this.Some said, exposing kids will expand their horizon, inculcate creativity in their minds, so that later on they can choose which path they would like to focus and pursue. Another viewpoint is to have playdates, or even small visit form neighbors is enough to occupy the child. My question is - what if we do not do much of the activities -is the child going to miss on stuff big time in his life? I myself did not have much exposure to a myriad of activities during my school year,as I did not have the time to do all these things. Where does one find time to do everything?
See you all at the anniversary meet.
