Chidiyaaa Udd.......

It was a sad day for Unnati...

Nishank was leaving Gurgaon....

He is heading to US for his higher studies.... However, we were happy too as finally got what he was waiting for..

Guess what, it was Eisha's b'day too....

Hurrey...

Party time!!!...

Eisha brought Paties, chips (i just love them...) and cake for everyone.... Awesome...

Children were also very happy...

Oh shucks!!.. how can i forget Dairy Milk...(I hope everybody remembers this one.. )

She got Dairy Milk for everyone.... :)

Ahem.. Ahem..well i shouldn't say but I was really very hungry... forgot to had breakfast in the morning... but got so excited when I saw so many things to eat... :)

You can say i was like this....


as if i was seeing all this for the first time...

He was a bit confused ye kya ho raha hai... mummy ne to bola tha school mei padai hoti hai... par ye to bohot acha school hai ... :)

Now see how happy everyone looks ...


Kuch baaat hai Dairy Milk mei....

Well this was not all... after the school was over and all the kids were gone it was time to show your skills... eh? skills...Now you will ask me what kind of skills....

Look at this....



Manish showing his skills....

Infact I must say he is very good at it..

I also learned from him that I should also start practicing it.... It can always help you as an alternate career option...

So after everything was cleaned it was time to sit together for a serious meeting.. humm.. AID Gurgaon was about to have a serious meeting....

Guess what... the meeting turned out to be 'Chidiya ud' competition...

Chidiya ud..
Maina ud..
Kauwa ud...
Bhais ud...

ud gayi ungli... Ooops I got out.. :(

But competition was still going on and all the volunteers were busy keeping their eye on their fingers ki kahi galat janwar pe na ud jaye...

One by one volunteers were getting out... and competition was getting tougher.. but in the end we had two champions...

Champ Manisha and Champ Eisha.... ( Clappings for their maiden victory... )

Well I'm practicing hard these days to win the next AID Gurgaon Chidiya Ud competition...

How about AID Inter Chapter Chidiya Ud competition... Its not going to be easy to take over the AID Gurgaon team..

Check out the AID Gurgaon champions...



Many people asked me that what is all this happening...

I think social service is not about just carrying jhola and moving everywhere... its about joining with people.. its about making good friends.. its about having fun ... its about spending fun time with kids... its about you.. its about them... its about all of us...

Its about bringing the change....

being the change...

I am proud to be the part of AID Gurgaon

Dance Dance Dance

Dance Dance

I just love dancing.. so when Shilpi told me that she can get her dance teacher at Unnati to teach dance steps to kids, I got excited...

Wow...

Dance...

I started waiting for the weekend when the dance teacher will be visiting Unnati...

I reached the class in the morning and this is what i saw:



Awesome... :)


Everyone was dancing :)

Even the boys were learning classical dance...

1-2, 1-2, 1-2, 1-2, 1-2, 1-2, 1-2, 1-2,

All the hands in the class were moving on this rhythm...

Children were really loving it...

They even made Himanshu dance with their moves:



Check out our spiky :)


Doh!!.. what to say about him... Looks like he is trying to fly...


Tara and Durga came out to be the best dancer and in the end also showed their dance to everyone....


Well this was not the end... after the fun time it was time to study...

Eisha (our visiting teacher from outside India :)) started the class with numbers...

1, 2, 3, 4, .....6, 7, 8..



It reminded me of my childhood.. how hard it was to remember that 8 comes after 7 and 7 comes after 6.. ufff.... I really couldn't understand at that time that why can't the 8 come after 6!!!.. they are easy to remember, isn't.. aaah.. only God knows the reason..

After the numerical class it was my turn... and i started revising them about chuha...

RAT MAT CAT NAT ... i don't know what all...


Hey do you guyz saw... Unnati is now all changed... Have a look at the board... its changed from the black board to white board....

Check out our posters..


I would give the credit for all the changes that are recently going on at Unnati to Eisha... she is a Gem of a person... She is teaching the kids with full dedication..

Hats off to her..

Guyz.. Unnati is progressing!!!..

Spiky..

Hey people did i tell you about spiky...


Naah...

We have a child whose hair style is no less than hair styles of models..

I guess he can easily replace all the models in the Garnier hair Gel advertisement...

Here is our spiky...



Girls vs. Boys

First of all sorry, sorry, sorry...

I know i'm very late... but despite of all the efforts by this mean world to stop me... I am here to tell you about the Unnati's visit...

Well well, we started the day with some english class, teaching the children about how to greet a person when you meet them for the first time...

How du du du... (basically that means How do you do?)
I am phine, Thanku ...
Wat is yur name?


I hope from the title you all must have got an idea about what i'm about to tell you...

The WAR which is going on since years and still no decision has been made...

The historical war between girls and boys... We decided to finally make an end to it by having a hot competition between girls and boys...

Well everybody know that this is just a formality and its unanimously known that who should win... but we still thought of having it so that the other party feels comfortable... :)

If you guyz remember we had a similar competition sometime back in Mobile Creches and you know how won :)

Girls and boys were separated and Unnati was divided into two teams.... Girls were on the left side and on my right were boys...


Questions started...

Datto ko english mei kya kehte hai... Teeth

Sir ko english mei kya kehte hai... Head

Ungaliyo ko english mei kya kehte hai... Fingers

Girls .. Boys.. Girls.. Boys..Girls.. Boys..

and teams started answering one after the other... I was impressed by the way they were answering the questions...

Though both the teams earned the same points no. of points but boys were answering in a better way :)

Ofcourse

Well its obvious too.. :)

We raised the level of questions and the war started again...

Questions-Answers, Questions-Answers, Questions-Answers

both the teams were fighting and volunteers got equally involved in the competition...

Slowly, the competition which started with a close fight finally got completed when one team took over the other team with few points....

Do you want me to tell you who won...


Ofcourse Boys!!! :)

I know now people are going to kill me after reading this post.. :)

Happy Unnati!!!...
