Children’s Day also commemorates the birth anniversary of the first Prime Minister of India, Jawaharlal Nehru, fondly known as ‘Chacha Nehru’ and on this day, teachers and parents strive to make it into a special occasion for all children by showering them with affection and surprise gifts and even putting on entertaining performances for them in their respective schools. With the benefit of work-from-home owing to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, we decided to give Children's Day our own special twist this year.
