The best thing I learnt during
the Lockdown Period
The lockdown
period has been a learning phase for everyone, I am sure. Though I have to stay
indoors, this has made me acquire new skills. During lockdown, I have learnt
many life lessons, one of it is hygiene and the other is thanks- giving. Social
distancing, quarantine, containment zones etc are the words that are now a part
of my vocabulary. I wrote and composed my own washing hands rhyme. My parents
taught me that we should be thankful to police officials and health workers who
put their lives in danger to save us. The lockdown started like a small vacation.
The first few days were enjoyable but then I started feeling bored, missed my
friends, school, outing with parents etc.
At that time my parents helped me to learn few new skills like baking
cake, learning painting. To be honest, I spent quality time with my parents. We,
together, watched serials like Sai Baba, Ramayana, Mahabharata and learnt a lot
from them. We watched movies and read story books together. I have learnt board
games like LUDO and CHESS. On the whole to wrap things up, the most important
lesson I learnt during lockdown is empathy, love towards family, responsibility
towards society and thanks giving approach towards the Covid warriors.
