The School team in Manauri had organised a Fancy Dress Competition on Children's day last year...all the tiny toddlers were dressed in colourful out fits...with some or the other theme..most of the kids won lot of prizes..except my students...prior to this event..I had packed some gifts at home for all the participants from my class....after the competition..we all gathered in the class room..and I asked everybody to clap for themselves..i too joined hands with them..
some of the kids felt bad as they dint get any prizes...I hugged them and told them that they had done a wonderful job..and I was proud of them...they all smiled..and suddenly I opened the bag of gifts in front of them..and distributed amongst all of them..they were simply thrilled..I can still visualise that scene...
They were very happy..they started dancing..and came to me..hugged me..kissed me..and thanked me...I can never forget those sparkling eyes..full of love and affection..and above all their happiness....rest of the kids who were hesitant earlier to participate..came forward and told me that they would like to go to the stage and perform in front of everybody present there...for the first time I saw that there was no stage fright..and no hesitation at all...
In a way those small gifts had motivated the kids to participate in all the competitions later...which made the parents feel proud and content...!!!And the school was proud to get some of impressive young perfomers in all the fields..!!
