Every school I visited had one thing in common. My son didn't belong there. Since my first son was born 15 years ago, I searched for a space for my child that was not just safe, but secure. A school where he felt secure enough to ask questions and where he was not told to sit up straight when he wanted to learn how to think outside the box. I went to many schools around Bangalore and while they seemed very polished, they felt pressured. They claimed to be creative, but yet boxed in a curriculum that was outdated. So eventually, I stopped searching and started building Eravoo Centre of Learning- a school that my toddler would've appreciated, a place which nurtures natural talent. Come say hi if you're in Bengaluru and Book a discovery session on our site.

Here's why we should go back to our natural instincts & not just on the weekends. A preschool that embraces the benefits of barefoot learning, encouraging children to connect with the earth beneath their feet and experience the grounding effects of being barefoot? It's coming together. At Eravoo Centre of Learning, we believe that true learning starts from the ground up. 👣 Why Barefoot? Walking barefoot isn’t just natural—it’s fundamental to healthy foot development. Grounding, or the act of connecting directly with the earth, has been part of Indian value systems for centuries, promoting physical and emotional well-being. Studies show that barefoot walking improves foot grip, strengthens foot muscles, and helps avoid conditions like flat feet, which affect 1 in 4 adults. 🌱 In fact, walking barefoot enhances balance, promotes natural arch formation, and supports better posture—laying the foundation for a healthier body and mind. It's imperative to foster a nature-based approach, allowing children to grow strong, grounded, and connected to their roots—both physically and spiritually. 👶 Let’s nurture strong feet, resilient minds, and rooted values, one barefoot step at a time! #BarefootLearning #Grounding #IndianValues #EarlyEducation #Curiosity

Imagine asking your child, “𝘏𝘰𝘸 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘥𝘢𝘺?” Most likely, you’ll get a simple answer like “𝘎𝘰𝘰𝘥” or “𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗲”. But if you ask, “𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘮𝘰𝘴𝘵 𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘯𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰𝘥𝘢𝘺?” or “𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘮𝘢𝘥𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘥 𝘵𝘰𝘥𝘢𝘺?”, you’ll get a deeper insight into their thoughts and emotions, sparking a meaningful conversation. 🔑 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗢𝗽𝗲𝗻-𝗘𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗱 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗗𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝗜𝘁 𝗠𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗖𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗱? As parents, we all want our children to be curious, confident, and capable of solving problems on their own. But how can we make that happen? 🤔 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗻-𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗱 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝗻. It’s a way of teaching that focuses less on giving answers and more on sparking questions. It’s not about memorizing facts, but about helping children think critically, explore their world, and find creative solutions to challenges. 🌱 Why is it important for your child? 𝗡𝘂𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲𝘀 𝗖𝘂𝗿𝗶𝗼𝘀𝗶𝘁𝘆 – Instead of telling children what to learn, open-ended learning invites them to explore and discover why something works or what happens when they try something new. For example, “What do you think will happen if we mix these two colors?” 🎨 𝗕𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱𝘀 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 – Children learn to trust their own ideas, make decisions, and take risks. This boosts their self-esteem and makes them more confident in tackling problems. Ask them, “How would you solve this problem if you were in charge?” 🧩 𝗙𝗼𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗹-𝗟𝗶𝗳𝗲 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗯𝗹𝗲𝗺-𝗦𝗼𝗹𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 – The world isn’t black and white, and neither are the problems our kids will face. Open-ended learning prepares them to think creatively and solve complex issues. “What are some ways we could make this work differently?” 🔧 𝗘𝗻𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗲𝘀 𝗟𝗶𝗳𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 – By teaching kids how to ask questions and seek answers on their own, we’re helping them develop a love for learning that lasts a lifetime. 📚 𝗧𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗲𝘀 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 – Children will make mistakes. That’s normal! Open-ended learning teaches them that failure is just a stepping stone toward success, encouraging them to keep trying and learning. “Why do you think that happened? What could we do next?” 🤔 At Eravoo Centre of Learning, we’ve created an environment where kids are encouraged to explore, play, and ask as many “what if” questions as they can. We believe in giving them the freedom to learn at their own pace, making their education an exciting journey of discovery. 🌟 👇 Curious about how open-ended learning works?

But what about solving the real problems that matter? 🤔 In today’s fast-paced world, memorization won’t cut it.

They need to think creatively and find solutions, not just recall facts. 𝗔𝗱𝗮𝗽𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝗞𝗲𝘆 – The world is changing every day. Problem solvers adapt, learn, and grow through uncertainty. 𝗙𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗮 𝗟𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗼𝗻 – In a world that values perfection, we need to teach our kids that failure is part of the process, not something to fear.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗪𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗟𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗖𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗱’𝘀 𝗦𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗼𝗹? As parents, we all want the best for our children. But when it comes to school, what does “𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝘀𝘁” really mean? It’s time to shift our focus. 𝗪𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸 𝗯𝗲𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗱𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝘀𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗲𝘀. The best schools nurture curiosity, foster emotional intelligence, and provide a safe space for children to express themselves. Schools must prioritize real-world learning—where kids are encouraged to explore, question, and grow. What truly matters is an environment where children’s uniqueness is valued, where learning is driven by exploration and hands-on experiences. In a world that’s changing rapidly, our children need more than academic knowledge. They need resilience, creativity, empathy, and the ability to think critically. As you consider your child’s future, I urge you to ask: 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘀𝗸𝗶𝗹𝗹𝘀 𝗱𝗼 𝗜 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺 𝘁𝗼 𝘄𝗮𝗹𝗸 𝗮𝘄𝗮𝘆 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵? 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘃𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗲𝘀 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗲𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹? The time to rethink education is now.

𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗪𝗲 𝗘𝗺𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗲 ‘𝗪𝗵𝘆?’ 𝗖𝘂𝗿𝗶𝗼𝘀𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗸 𝗼𝗳 𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻, but it’s often stifled in traditional learning. The power of asking “Why?” is that it opens doors to critical thinking and real-world problem-solving. Every “why” is an opportunity to dive deeper, experiment, and uncover something new. At Eravoo, we’ve built an environment where curiosity drives learning. Whether it’s testing why blocks tumble or exploring how sunlight affects plant growth, children aren’t just memorizing facts – they’re learning how to think critically, collaborate, and adapt. T𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗱𝘀𝗲𝘁 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀𝗻’𝘁 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗱𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗽 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄𝗹𝗲𝗱𝗴𝗲 – 𝗶𝘁 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱𝘀 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲, creativity, and the confidence to tackle challenges head-on. By fostering a culture where mistakes are welcomed and exploration is valued, we’re shaping future problem-solvers. For parents and educators, the challenge is to create spaces where curiosity is encouraged and questions are answered with exploration, not just answers. At Eravoo, that’s our mission – to nurture young minds who will grow into lifelong learners and thinkers. So, when a child asks, "𝗪𝗵𝘆?" – 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗻 𝗶𝗻, 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘂𝗻𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗸 𝗮 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝗼𝗳 𝗽𝗼𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆. This is the foundation of true learning. 🌱
