00:00In today's interesting article, Khushamdid, today we are going to talk about a topic which is of interest to all of us.
00:06Summer vacations are very close to the hearts of everyone. In this presentation, we will bring back those golden and sweet memories of childhood.
00:13From the journey of 19th century to today's modern era
00:16I will explore practical and best ways to spend children's holidays, so let's get started.
00:23Consider this, the size of a house is not measured by its walls, nor by its people. What a profound statement.
00:29Isn't it, actually a house is called a home
00:46The first aspect we will cover in today's review is the childhood summer vacation.
00:51There will be mention of the sacred love at grandmother's house, then the traditional games, then the trials and tribulations of changing times, and
00:57Finally, the current situation
00:59A powerful practical guide will be presented for, so let's start with the childhood and summer vacations,
01:05With those simple joys, close your eyes and bring to mind those memories of the past that have been mentioned in these
01:11It has been done in Jaray, due to rain
01:13That sweet aroma, that sweet and sour taste of raw mangoes and the benefits that come with the announcement of holidays.
01:19That complete carefreeness, brother, what a time that was, when happiness had become very simple, and holidays
01:24It simply means just come
01:39used to bring it and children used to play freely in those courtyards, but in contrast to this, today's houses are completely
01:46Covered or closed construction sites have been built, open courtyards have now become cow sheds, and the Jahar
01:51This thing has caused harm to the children
02:06They were forced to wait for a whole year, why? Because it wasn't just a building, it was a symbol of love.
02:11It was a world where happiness was sold everywhere.
02:30that chicken was cooked only once a week and the whole house was filled with joy, and
02:35The most important role was played by the grandmothers, who, despite their limited resources, displayed patience, courtesy and unmatched hospitality.
02:42There was a complete institution
02:43Here a very poignant reality emerges: as we said in the beginning, a home is not made of walls, but of people.
02:51are inhabited by, and indeed when these elderly personalities leave this world, then in these houses
02:56A strange, deep silence ensues.
02:58According to Jarai, it feels as if even the birds in the courtyard have stopped coming after his departure.
03:04Yes, it was their presence that gave life to these walls.
03:07Well, there is a very interesting and a bit humorous aspect in these memories, which is recounted in a humorous manner every year.
03:15Also called hot migration
03:16It used to be that as soon as June started, the family members would pack their bags and head to their grandmother's house.
03:22used to do
03:23Apparently, it was a journey of love and affection, but a major reason for this migration was the intense heat and the sky.
03:30While talking to her, she would also escape from the routine of electricity bills and daily chores.
03:35Now let us turn towards the traditional games and those innocent pranks, which were once the golden era of sports.
03:41was called
03:41Long before today's screen age, children spent most of their time in highly creative and intensely traditional games.
03:48spent time playing games
03:49These games not only kept the children busy for hours but also improved their physical and mental fitness.
03:55He also played a wonderful role
03:57For example, in Jarai, there is mention of a very famous game called Andha Madari.
04:02Just listen to its principles, one player was made a juggler and his eyes were blindfolded and the rest of the children were made his puppets.
04:08They were eating breakfast all around
04:10Then the juggler would point his stick towards someone and make the sound of an animal and the player would hear it.
04:16I had to imitate the exact same voice.
04:19Then the magician had to identify who it was.
04:22Just think, what a wonderful way this was to develop children's creative abilities without any mobile or screen.
04:29There used to be another great game, Pass the Smile, meaning pass the smile.
04:36In this, all the players used to bat in a circle by making very serious postures.
04:41Then one player would smile loudly and then wipe that smile from his face and give it to someone else.
04:48throws to the side
04:49Now the condition was that whoever's turn it was not there would not laugh at all.
04:53Just imagine how difficult and funny it must be for children to control their laughter.
04:59This game brought everyone closer to each other.
05:02And brother, along with games, mischief was also an essential part of these holidays.
05:06A very interesting incident is found in Jarai about a prank that took place on the banks of the lake.
05:11What happened was that a brother secretly pulled his sister's leg from underwater.
05:16The sister thought that perhaps some crocodile had gone there and a tremendous kind of funny fear and panic spread there.
05:22It is these small mischiefs that later become our fondest memories.
05:27Similarly, the incidents of plucking fruits from trees are also very interesting.
05:31In one incident, some children were trying to knock down a perfectly ripe guava with a stick.
05:36Now in this attempt, not only did the branch of the tree break but the stick also bounced off and hit Nani directly.
05:43These innocent pranks would often create a sweet commotion in the entire house.
05:48which was etched in everyone's mind forever.
05:51But time does not remain the same, a lot has changed with the passage of time.
05:56In the next part of this article, we see how much fun and activities children have today.
06:01has changed
06:02Jarai explains that we have now moved away from making or inventing things to just using ready-made things.
06:08have moved towards consumption
06:11And this is a real eye-opener.
06:13In the past, children were taught proper skills during holidays.
06:17For example, blank pages were taken out from old notebooks and joined together so that children could enjoy them.
06:22be able to practice farming
06:23This not only improved handwriting but also gave me a new skill.
06:27But today we have found the easiest solution to keep children quiet and busy.
06:32Put a mobile phone in their hands
06:34This is a huge and significant change in our way of life.
06:38So now the question arises that what is the solution to this situation?
06:42How to spend your holidays these days
06:45Fortunately, there is a powerful and practical leadership for the new khandas in Jarai.
06:51So let us see how we can make these summer vacations purposeful, healthy and enjoyable for our children.
06:57Can make a memory
06:58The first and most important thing is to establish a voting routine.
07:03According to Mahreen, holidays do not necessarily mean that the daily routine has to be completely ended.
07:09go
07:09There should be a proper schedule for waking up and praying.
07:12And above all, monitor screen time strictly.
07:16And limit it to just one to two hours daily.
07:19This is very important to prevent children from becoming lazy.
07:22Along with this, the mental health of children should also not be ignored.
07:26Don't make it a burden or a school companion
07:29But in an interesting way, take out at least 30-60 minutes daily for study.
07:35Include Islamic and moral stories in it so that the children can also develop their characters.
07:40And yes, encourage them to engage in activities like drawing, painting and handicrafts.
07:44So that their minds can think of new ideas and their creative abilities can come out.
07:49Not only this, it is also very important to inculcate a sense of responsibility in children.
07:54Give them small household chores, like making their bed or watering the plants
07:59Apart from this, make it a point to engage in some form of physical activity every day, such as cycling.
08:05And best of all, plan to spend time with the family.
08:10Play games together or visit local wonders and historical sites
08:14So after all this debate, we are faced with a very deep and thought-provoking question on Ikhtam
08:22Are we providing today's new generation with the experiences and memories that will be their greatest treasures tomorrow?
08:28Khimti will become Asasa
08:29Today we took stock of the beautiful memories of the past and the lifestyle of the modern era.
08:35Remember, Choti is not just a way to pass time, but it is the time when the foundation of personality and self-worth is laid.
08:42She goes
08:42I hope this exciting presentation has given you a chance to think about many new ideas.
