Why Dusshera Celebration in Playschools Matters

Dusshera Celebration

At Bragnam Learning Pvt. Ltd., every festival is more than just a celebration—it is an opportunity to teach children values, traditions, and the beautiful cultural heritage of our country. As we step into the joyous occasion of Dusshera, one of India’s most significant festivals, we extend our warm wishes to all our playschool franchises, parents, teachers, and little learners.

Dusshera, also known as Vijayadashami, is celebrated on the tenth day of the Navratri festival. It marks the victory of Lord Rama over the demon king Ravana, symbolizing the eternal triumph of good over evil. For children in their foundational years, the story of Dusshera serves as an inspiring lesson—that no matter how powerful wrongdoings may seem, truth, goodness, and righteousness will always prevail in the end.

The Educational Importance of Dusshera for Children
At our playschools, we believe that festivals are not only about rituals but also about laying down strong moral and ethical foundations. Through storytelling sessions, role-plays, and festive activities, we help children understand:

The Power of Goodness: The story of Lord Rama shows how courage, patience, and truthfulness can overcome even the strongest challenges.

Value of Family and Responsibility: Rama’s dedication toward his duty and his family teaches children about respect, love, and responsibility.

Teamwork and Friendship: The bond between Rama, Lakshman, Hanuman, and their allies highlights collaboration and the importance of standing together for the right cause.

By presenting these stories in a playful and interactive manner, children not only enjoy the celebration but also absorb life-long lessons that shape their character.

Dusshera Activities at Bragnam Playschools
At Bragnam Learning, our curriculum integrates festive celebrations with fun-filled learning experiences. For Dusshera, our playschools can engage in simple yet impactful activities that allow children to participate actively:

Storytelling and Puppet Shows: Using colorful puppets and stories of Rama and Ravana, teachers can make the legend come alive for the little ones.

Art and Craft: Children can create paper Ravanas, bows and arrows, or draw their favorite Dusshera scenes, encouraging creativity and imagination.

Dramatic Play: Kids can dress up as characters from the Ramayana and perform small skits, boosting confidence and communication.

Symbolic Ravana Effigy: Instead of firecrackers, children can create eco-friendly Ravana models symbolizing negativity, which are then joyfully “defeated” to show the victory of good values over bad habits.

These activities not only make the festival memorable but also allow children to better understand cultural traditions in a way that is easy, engaging, and age-appropriate.

A Message for Our Franchises and Parents
Being a part of the Bragnam Learning family means going beyond academics and nurturing children with values that will guide them throughout life. Festivals like Dusshera remind us to instill in our young learners the courage to stand for truth, the patience to overcome difficulties, and the kindness to always choose goodness.

As playschool guides and parents, it is our responsibility to demonstrate through our own actions what these values mean. Children are great imitators—they learn more from what they observe than what they are told. This Dusshera, let us together resolve to be role models of honesty, compassion, and courage for our little learners.

Dusshera: A Time of Renewal
Dusshera is not just about mythology; it is also about self-reflection. Just as Lord Rama defeated Ravana, we too can use this occasion to defeat the negative habits within us—be it anger, impatience, or laziness—and embrace positivity. By doing so, we show children that the spirit of Dusshera lies not only in remembering history but also in applying its lessons to our everyday lives.

Let this festival be a reminder for all of us in the Bragnam family to continue working together to shape bright futures filled with knowledge, confidence, and values.

On behalf of Bragnam Learning Pvt. Ltd., we wish every franchise, parent, teacher, and child a very Happy Dusshera. May this festival of victory inspire us all to choose goodness, share happiness, and light the path of knowledge for our little learners.
