Kolkata Kids Choose Yoga Over Screens: A Mother’s Inspiring Parenting Journey

Kolkata, India — While most children today wake up to mobile screens and cartoons, siblings Praney and Kashvi from Kolkata have chosen a different start to their day — one rooted in yoga, fitness, and mindfulness.

At just a young age, these two children have become an example of healthy living and positive upbringing, all thanks to their mother, Saloni Sharma, who has consciously steered them away from excessive screen time and towards a lifestyle filled with discipline, nature, and creativity.

“This is a very inspiring story that highlights the importance of guiding children in the right direction,” Saloni shares. “Instead of handing over gadgets, I prefer spending quality time with them, be it through yoga, sports, or art. These habits will shape their future.”

Every morning, the siblings roll out their yoga mats on the grass, breathing in fresh air and performing asanas with impressive focus. Their choice reflects a growing movement among Indian parents to reconnect children with nature and traditional wellness practices.

In an age dominated by smartphones and short attention spans, the story of Praney and Kashvi is a breath of fresh air. They are not just developing their physical health, but also nurturing emotional balance, creativity, and discipline — values that go far beyond academic scores.

“Children like Praney and Kashvi are setting a good example,” said one of the observers at the park. “We need more stories like these to inspire other parents.”

Saloni’s parenting stands out as a model worth emulating — a reminder that childhood is best nurtured not through digital distractions, but with presence, patience, and purpose.

This summer, as temperatures rise and screen time spikes, perhaps it’s time to take a cue from this Kolkata family — and lead our children into a cooler, calmer, and healthier lifestyle.
