3. Importance Of Extra Curricular Activities

4. GET INVOLVED
“All work and no play makes Jack a dull
boy” has acquired a lot of significance
today.

5. WHY ARE EXTRACURRICULAR
ACTIVITIES IMPORTANT?
Because they,
•Encourage leadership
•Promote responsibility
•Build socialization skills
•Help develop organizational skills

7. THEY HARNESS TALENT, THE RIGHT
WAY!
There is some special talent in
everyone. And this talent remains
latent till it is woken up from its
hibernation! This will happen if you
start taking chances, grab
opportunities and try out everything
you can. You will definitely identify
your forte’ and find your niche’. We
must let kids take part in many extra
curricular activities so that they
discover and learn about their talents

8. HOLISTIC AND ALLROUND
DEVELOPMENT
People who are good at many things are
preferred over people who can only do
one thing correctly! When children are
encouraged in extra curricular
activities, they acquire many skills,
which fosters their all round
development. They grow holistically. If
you are skillful in many things, it makes
you more reliable. You also become
independent.

9. RAISE IN SELF ESTEEM
Inferiority complex and the lack of
self worth arise out of a feeling of
non-accomplishment. Many times,
children who have not stepped out and
tried anything may later get this
feeling. After all, an empty mind is a
devil’s workshop! If children are
involved in many activities, they will
not have the time to think negative
thoughts. Doing many things gives
them a feeling of self-worth and this
raises their self-esteem.

10. FOR A GOOD SOCIAL LIFE
You may have noticed that, sometimes,
sticking only to academics will not
fetch you many friends. It is only
when you go out there, in the real
world, that you meet new people,
socialize and make friends. When you
meet people and discover shared
common interests, that is when you
begin to bond!
Taking part in group activities is a
great way to make friends.
