Seasons

Here we will discuss about the four seasons and the duration.

Generally, we have four seasons in a year.

They are spring, summer, autumn and winter.

Each season lasts for about 3 months.

Some months are too hot and some are too cold. The period of hot months is called the hot or summer season. The period of cold months is called the cold or winter season.

In between the summer season and winter season the sky often remains cloudy and it rains a lot. This cloudy and rainy season is known as the rainy season.

After the winter season, for about two months it is neither too cold nor too hot. There is good weather all around. This period of charming weather is called the spring season.

Thus, there are four main seasons.

Kids let’s enjoy the story about seasons.

The story about seasons:

One day, the seasons had an argument. Each one of them said, “I am the best!”

      Spring said, “I am when flowers bloom and it is green and fresh everywhere. Birds fly and insects have fun with new flowers.”

        Summer said, “Yes, but I am when the sun shines brightly and it feels too hot to do anything. People eat ice-cream, enjoy cold drinks and eat yummy watermelon.

        Autumn said, “I am when trees shed their leaves and cover the earth in orange brilliance. The air feels cool.”

        Winter said, “I am when people wear woolen clothes, caps and gloves to keep their bodies warm. They get to drink hot chocolate. Birds fly south for the winter because it’s too cold.”

Since they couldn’t decide who was best, they agreed that they were all important because one could not do without the other.

As per the India calendar, a year is divided into six seasons.

They are:

Shishira; Vasanta; Grishma; Hemanta; Varsha; Sharada

Each of these seasons lasts for about 2 months.

Duration of each season in months is given in the following pictures:

Look at the following pictures to understand the chain of seasons and their duration:

Shishira:     January - February

Vasanta:     March - April

Grishma:     May - June

Varsha:       July - August

Sharada:     September - October

Hemanta:    November - December

The seasons are not used for measuring time.

We need different type of dresses for each season.

Even the food items differ from season to season.

Note: Time and duration of season changes from place to place.

Kindergarten kids can have fun reading the stories about the seasons and also share the story with your friends. In kindergarten math learning activities kids can enjoy a fun time activities.

Children can collect the pictures of things used in summer and winter seasons. They can make two different seasons pictures colorfully and can hang on the wall.
