Before purchasing any protective gear, here are some preventive measures to avoid sickness for every school-going child-

• Talk to your pediatrician about your child’s vaccine schedule and find out if they are eligible for a flu shot.
• Make dietary changes to include more immunity-boosting ingredients and recipes that help your child battle monsoon-related sickness.
• Make sure that you teach your child some basic hygiene practices like sanitizing, coughing with their mouth closed, and not sharing handkerchiefs and water bottles at this time.
• Make sure that your child is active and moving as exercise and physical activity increase immunity and help your child stay disease-free!

The Faithful Umbrella- The first thing that comes to your mind when we say monsoon- is the trusty umbrella! This is an important addition to any monsoon essentials starter pack. An umbrella is the first thing you buy, no matter what your age.  To make sure that your kid never forgets their umbrella at home, get them in attractive prints, and patterns, or better yet have their favorite characters feature on the umbrellas. 

The Protective Raincoat- Sometimes carrying an umbrella can get quite cumbersome for young kids, and umbrellas don’t assure overall protection. A great way to provide all-around protection is to buy good-quality raincoats for your kid. This can protect them from torrential rainfall, a daily affair in Mumbai and Pune during peak monsoon. Get a bright-colored raincoat that is full-sized and covers your child’s head. Even better if it covers their school bags and accessories! Wildcraft has a complete collection of rainwear and protective equipment for children and teens, in exciting colors and prints that you need to check out! 

The Trusty Sanitizer- In these uncertain times, a sanitizer is an absolute must.  You might be vigilant at all times and encourage your child to wash their hands often, but when they are at school or at socially distanced parties, they touch a lot of surfaces that are dirty and might potentially harm them. As kids, they are not that conscious about their fingers touching their face all the time and might eat without the fuss of washing their hands. A trusty sanitizer that is easy to use and convenient is the best way to keep your kids safe!  

The Comforting Jacket- Catching a cold during monsoon season is very easy, and in these times, keeping your immune system strong and protected is important. One mistake we make is not giving kids added protection in terms of clothes, as kids can get wet during torrential rainfall and if they are not immediately covered with something warm, they will catch a cold which might lead to bouts of viral. A good jacket that lasts the season is a great buy! 

The Waterproof Bag-  Carrying your umbrella, raincoats, and your other essentials can get quite cumbersome, the water may weigh it down making it difficult for your child to conveniently carry their stuff. Your kid’s school bag is a great tool to carry all the essentials but they need to be waterproof to prevent anything inside from getting wet as well as stop water from seeping outside! 

Safe Footwear-  Proper footwear is essential to your child’s safety during the monsoon season as splashing in the puddles and walking through dirty pools of water in poor footwear can risk the chances of infection, and without proper footwear, they might also skid and slip on the road. Keeping the feet clean and making sure they don’t fall is why you need to buy good footwear for them!

The post Back To School Must-Haves For Your Child! appeared first on Windmill Festival.

The Musical Theme- The New Year is all about the sounds of laughter and glee that the joy of togetherness brings. Incorporate this theme into your next party by making it all about the sounds and music of the festival. Order all the Indian classics and if you have talented budding musicians at home, give them all the liberty to plan out the musical itinerary of the night that has to match the theme. Make it like a concert at home, make a makeshift stage, don your most glamorous saree or kurta, and jam to your favorite songs. Make a fun competition by playing the guess the song, or the singer game, and give everyone in the family a chance to let their inner singer live on the stage. We love these lights that will add some serious charm to your stage! To add to the music theme, check out these decorations!

The Backyard Party- An outdoor summer party is a fun idea especially if you have kids at home. It is also a great backyard party idea on a budget since it will include just the closest and your most favorite people. Start off your decor by lighting up the patio, or using some string lights to spruce up the patio furniture. For food, make sure you have a lot of finger food and snacks ready to go, and it will be cheaper to buy it in bulk. Be ready with a shade if it starts raining and keep the kids engaged with fun activities like letting them play with eco-friendly crackers under the parental guidance of course, or keep them busy in a fun art project which is New Year themed like finger painting or what the New Year represents to them!

The DIY Ugai Rangoli Party- What’s a Ugadi party without the rangoli? Take this opportunity to let your inner artist shine. Get rangoli supplies at home, and create a competition where the entire fam competes to create the biggest and the most eloquent rangolis. Team up and collaborate with the family members to create your own personal masterpiece at home. Since everyone will be busy creating these rangolis, make sure you have enough snack foods and drinks for refreshments to keep the spirit alive! We love these DIY Rangoli kits for your children!

Decorate Your Own Diya- New Year means welcoming the new light to your life. Bring some light and let the children bring in the iridescent illumination of tiny diyas dotted around the house. Make it a fun activity by including everyone in the fam, even the kids. The joy of having made your diya and decorating it all over the house will be unparalleled. Plus engaging your kids in creative activities like these is great for their brain development and finger dexterity. We love these adorable make-your-own diya sets for the entire fam! Tiny Diyas dotted around the home, decorated by the young children of the house, will be a perfect decor idea for the new year! 

A Floral Themed New Year Party- The pastel shades of fresh flowers from the market, the ephemeral charm of marigolds that is a staple fixture during any kind of festivity, the allure of jasmine, or the understated elegance of lilies, flowers have the ability to light up any household. Plan your New Year by adding some gorgeous flowers all over your living space that matches the color scheme of your house. We recommend light shades of lily and jasmine if you have a monochrome setting at your place, or a bright flush of marigold if your party is during the day. Don’t want to opt for fresh flowers for your party? We love this flower hanging that is sure to brighten up your party!

The post Here Are Some Fabulous Party Ideas To Welcome The Regional New Year With the Family! appeared first on Windmill Festival.

The Crib Is The Masterpiece– Never underestimate the importance of the crib. Sleep as we know is essential for newborns as they spend most of their first few months sleeping and growing. Sleep is essential to their cell repair, growth, weight gain, and brain and neuro-development, and a crib can help aid this process. Mostly, we have a basic idea of what a crib should look like. Secure and high from all sides, with fitted sheets and a protective framework. However, go the extra step and make sure that there is enough open space in the crib that gives your baby enough space to breathe. If you are not co-sleeping with your baby, it is best to attach an automated baby bassinet like Snoo that protects your baby, aids their breathing, and promotes better sleep! 

Diaper Station– A newborn automatically means that you are going to be buying a lot of diapers in the next few months! When decorating a newborn baby’s room it is often difficult to integrate something like a diaper station in your baby’s nursery. This is where it gets interesting- automated odor-free diaper disposals! Not only do they come in sleek design and color, but they also help make life easy for a new parent. You can easily have a dedicated shelf for diapers over your changing table, dispose of your diapers in the same room without having to worry about the funky odor. This also means that you do not have to venture outside the room frequently when your baby needs you for cleaning and changing! 

Sensory Toys– Newborns do not instantly see in color, instead this vision develops over time, however this development among others is a marker for milestones in brain development. There are certain things to keep in mind when decorating a newborn baby’s room to help aid their brain development. Make sure you have sensory toys hanging above their cribs, enough contrast colours to stimulate their brain, varying textured toys, and nibbles that they can hold on to for better hand-eye coordination and finger dexterity. 

The Rocking Chair– This is something that lasts you for a while and is a great addition when decorating a newborn baby’s room as you can play with the colors and finish to complement the nursery. This is also a great tool for one-on-one bonding time with the baby during feedings or when you are trying to get them to sleep. We all know that the gentle rocking motion is great to get newborns to sleep, however, this can also be a great asset and comforting to newborn mothers as they breastfeed. Choosing a rocking chair with proper lumbar support and cushioning that helps maintain posture during long feeding hours and makes you feel at ease is truly a great addition for both baby and parent! 

Feeding Station– Feeding time means spillovers, burping, changing and so much more. Because at this newborn stage, we have so many things at the nursery, sometimes it is easy to get lost and frazzled over the clutter! Although we cannot guarantee that raising a newborn will be mess-free, we can guarantee that some design changes can help make the process easier for you. When decorating a newborn baby’s room, make sure that you have a dedicated feeding station for your child- make sure that this station comes with a lot of shelves and compartments and if you can, make sure that you have a small sink in the nursery so that you can wash the feeding bottles and breast pumps if you are using one. How does this help you? Having a sink with a dedicated feeding station means that you won’t have to separate your baby’s bottles from the rest of your dishes in the house. Sometimes the soap that we use for the baby’s bottles are different so having a separate place for this can just remove any ounce of confusion and can help you minimize clutter wherever you can!
