Volunteer Diaries: A Beautiful Experience!

Back after a four day gap, I could spot similar faces again. They as usual had a lit up face and nothing seemed to matter to them. Seeing children everywhere, giggling and gaggling enjoying their childhood, fearless of the outside world, always cheers and boosts me up.

 
I go there to inculcate in them teeny-weeny bits of knowledge, but at the end of the day it’s not always them who end up learning, I am also able to learn various things from them. The way they do what theywant to do and don’t allow anyone to force them onto something, speaks of their levels of concentration. If they want to draw, they would only draw and likewise in other areas such as Maths, Colouring, Hindi etc. Spending those 2 hours with them always turns out to be a whole new experience, each and every time.

These words have been written by Manan Kedia who is a student of Standard XI at DPS RK Puram. As part of his summer vacations, he is volunteering at the Mobile Creches Day Care Centre at Raja Bazaar, New Delhi.
