This is the reason why they binge-watch their favourite TV shows during the weekends to match up with the stress of the whole week. But this too is not a healthy trend when the children get accustomed to this \u201cWeekend Culture\u201d pretty early in their life. <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>All work and no pla<\/em>y<\/span> is like having just <em>khichdi<\/em> with no occasional <em>Bhelpuri<\/em> sometimes. Kids too have to ease their stress out with something that can assure them some mind relaxation and relieve them from their daily routine pressure. This is where hobby classes and activity workshops come into the picture.<\/p>\n<p>Bangalore, known for its diversity and vibrancy is a house for many activities and events that keep taking place every now and then. It is hard for Bangaloreans to stay idle without either watching a play or attending classical or a rock concert. Dance ensembles and marathons for innumerable causes have kept the Bangalore\u2019s busy bees\u2019 interests over life intact. People club together every other weekend at some special events like these to combat their mundane life schedules. It is rest assured that no one \u2013 be it a child or an adult will be exempted from this vivid culture of Bangalore where people\u2019s involvement in these activities has become a cult practice. With places like M.G. Road, Indiranagar and Koramangala for the party animals; to places like Basavangudi, Jayanagar and Malleshwaram that infuse the cultural essence through its rich, iconic <em>Olde Bangalorism. <\/em>Bangalore truly deserves a confetti-blasting shout out which is so vivacious just like its weather which changes from chilly in the morning to sunny by the noon and starts pouring through the evening \u2013 all in one day!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1271 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.edustoke.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/collage-area.jpg\" alt=\"collage area\" width=\"326\" height=\"326\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.edustoke.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/collage-area.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.edustoke.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/collage-area-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.edustoke.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/collage-area-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.edustoke.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/collage-area-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.edustoke.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/collage-area-186x185.jpg 186w, https:\/\/www.edustoke.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/collage-area-220x220.jpg 220w, https:\/\/www.edustoke.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/collage-area-60x60.jpg 60w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 326px) 100vw, 326px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1275 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.edustoke.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/party-animals.jpg\" alt=\"party animals\" width=\"286\" height=\"191\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.edustoke.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/party-animals.jpg 1800w, https:\/\/www.edustoke.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/party-animals-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.edustoke.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/party-animals-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.edustoke.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/party-animals-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.edustoke.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/party-animals-272x182.jpg 272w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 286px) 100vw, 286px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>When the city with some much love is giving you such a diverse culture, it definitely becomes our duty to embrace this warmth. Children in Bangalore are usually seen busy going to some hobby sessions after their school hours. This could be of many genres. Sports, academic boasting, cultural related and few other classes that help them shape up and to be the multi-talented kids of the present generation. Here are some of the interesting post-school activities which children take up once they are back from their classroom backdrop.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.edustoke.com\/blog\/summer-camps-different-activities\/\">New Trends In SummerCamps &#8211; Edustoke<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Art and Culture:<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Earlier it used to be like when a parent talks about his child going to a music class; it used to be pretty obvious that their son is getting trained to be a singer. But today with the emerging changes in the field of pursuing varied forms of music, parents will have to wait for a significant time till they find out what their child is actually interested in. Is it Western classical or Indian classical? If Indian, will it be Hindustani or Carnatic? If the child\u2019s fondness is towards <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/M._S._Subbulakshmi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">M.S. Subbalakshmi<\/a> than <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Bhimsen_Joshi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pandit. Bheemsen Joshi<\/a>, then would he\/she be just learning Carnatic vocal or will there be a fair chance of putting some extra effort to learn an instrument like the violin or veena? Phew! Being a parent is for sure a task. Parents take the role of ultimate child psychologists who study their child\u2019s behaviour every minute to decipher their choice and interests.<\/p>\n<p>In Bangalore, there are innumerable places that conduct classes related to art and culture under some of the categories like:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Hindustani\/Carnatic Vocal<\/li>\n<li>Hindustani\/Carnatic Instrumental\/Percussions<\/li>\n<li>Rabindra Sangeet<\/li>\n<li>Bharatanatyam\/Kuchipudi\/Mohiniattam<\/li>\n<li>Kathak<\/li>\n<li>Odissi<\/li>\n<li>Western Dance\/Bollywood Freestyle\/Ballet<\/li>\n<li>Western Classical Vocals<\/li>\n<li>Western Instrumental\/Percussions<\/li>\n<li>Western\/Tanjore\/Madhubani\/Mysore style painting<\/li>\n<li>Folk forms like <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Yakshagana\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Yakshagana<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Dollu_Kunitha\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dollu Kunitha<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Theatre\/Acting<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-1273\" src=\"https:\/\/www.edustoke.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/music.jpg\" alt=\"music\" width=\"341\" height=\"341\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.edustoke.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/music.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.edustoke.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/music-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.edustoke.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/music-186x185.jpg 186w, https:\/\/www.edustoke.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/music-220x220.jpg 220w, https:\/\/www.edustoke.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/music-60x60.jpg 60w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 341px) 100vw, 341px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-1274\" src=\"https:\/\/www.edustoke.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/indian-dance.jpg\" alt=\"indian dance\" width=\"351\" height=\"252\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Sports and Fitness:<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Asking a footballer to be an athlete is like adding salt to coffee considering that salt too is a taste enhancer.
