      Have you ever been taken out from your school in your schooldays ? 
And do you still remember that day ? 
That’s the point! Reading and listening make the pedagogical process boring and tiresome. But when we add a charm of activity or exposure, it becomes charming and effortless. When a child steps out of his classroom and explores the world, the process of learning becomes very smooth and effective. Children learn and learn a lot by going outside the classroom rather than keep on learning within the boundaries of the classroom. Taking the children on various subject related visits gives an unforgettable knowledge of each subject. The child himself Doing research. Interested in various subjects. The boring for education is removed. Information is gathered by asking different types of questions. It is more important for a child to learn by himself than to teach him.
