Find Your Nature
I think fun lies in doing something close to our nature, heart and happiness. Playing and studying with kids is always fun. Yes, studying because then We talk a lot and share all random things on the Earth. Often, I think that parents involved in their child’s study might not…

Environmental science
The pet owners need environmental education before they think of petting animals. And if they themselves don’t attempt to learn pets have to train them. All respectable Indian pets, please do it!
