Early to bed and early to rise is still a good ground rule – even in the 21st century. Please avoid TV shows for children. Manthan will be screening child-friendly videos for children availing ASP to develop encyclopedic knowledge. Manthan Children play and work out fully – which is not available to many living in apartments or independent houses.

Manthan students will sleep early when they reach home. LKG and UKG students are given energy drink around 3.00 PM. Please ensure that they sleep at the age appropriate time after having their dinner. If some children sleep immediately on reaching home, do not worry. This is because they work out well during playtime. For the latter child, please try to push the sleep cycle to around 8.00 PM - after some food (you can avoid heavy food in the night).

Ensure they get up around 6.30 AM (or earlier for older children) so that they are fully prepared to enjoy the learning process during the day. Sleep from 8.30 PM to 2AM is equal to twice the amount of sleep during the other times of the day.
