Many ways of Learning

The summer holiday this year had been unusual. We had a “Stacation”!( a term i just learnt ).

It has been a great Stay-at-home-Vacation. My work was easy and the kids were relaxed. We caught on all our movies, as well as entire seasons of TV shows.

The cherry on the icing however, has been....

“THE COOK-OFF”!!!!!

What started as a simple idea, turned into an elaborate project as I outlined the rules and chalked out the score cards. They began over the weekend, when they both attacked google to get their menus in order. Their list of ingredients was exotic and their dishes were ambitious.

As time passed by the personalities of both my children became apparent. Sanjana, the planner who is into presentation and winning.. Arnav on the other end of the spectrum was laid back, haphazard but very intuitive about taste.

Presenting the rest of the story in a short film......

The Cook Off

As Arnav observed very wisely at the end of it all........he says to me- “it was a learning experience, mom!”
