RAINBOW - Bring Colours To Life...Make It At Home!!!

We live in a highly competitive world; each and every parent wants their child to be smart, responsible, successful and excel in every field. Natural course of action is that we put them through rigorous regime of courses or extra activities whether it interests them or not. A child is not fully developed to understand their likes, dislikes or interests.

Having gone through a similar childhood experience and drawing inferences from others, I could see that many of us are tagged as the “Wasted Talent”. Probably because we always had talent and potential in us but didn’t have a clear vision. Today, this has made us restless. “Mocktail  Mommies” has given us the platform to fill that void in us.

Art nurtures inventiveness as it engages in a process that aids in the development of self-esteem, self-discipline, better cooperation and self-motivation. Assisting children in learning through art ensure that they are equipped with skills and techniques that enable them to express better ideas. Always there is a world of difference between the skills provided at home and at a market place. The skills provided at home are for personal development and really have no way to be evaluated at professional level.

With Art, I too can be a “RAINBOW” in someone's life by showing them the true meaning of it, which is Life, Hope, Creation, Promise, Potential, Harmony and Expansion .
