MAKAR SANKRANTI
Makar Sankranti is celebrated throughout India as a harvest festival. It is a way of giving thanks to the elements of nature that help man. This is the period when the winter recedes, paving the way for the summer. It is the time the farmers bring home their harvest. In Gujrat it is celebrated as the Kite flying day.

About Curiouscity
Curiouscity has been created with the aim of promoting science in our communities. We believe that science is not merely a subject in school curriculum, but it is a way of looking at the world. There is a wonderful world out there that is waiting to be explored, to be discovered and our attempt is to bring some of that joy to the community we live in and to the children growing up around us. Therefore we want to take the children beyond the world of books, the four walls of the class room, and let them experience science first hand by working on simple experiments, and simple concepts.
Please Note: We will be closed from 25th Dec’11 to 2nd Jan’12. For more details and registrations kindly contact us from 3rd Jan’12. We are also looking for volunteers for this event who are above 24 years of age. So kindly contact us if your interested.
