Bachpan's Secret to Holistic Growth? The SPROUT Curriculum
-Albert Einstein
It is an undeniable truth that education plays a significant role in determining our chances of success. But what makes education successful? An effective curriculum, which challenges a child to think, create, and innovate in addition to emphasizing academic learning. A solid foundation for future academic, social, and emotional development is established by educating them from an early age. Our children are the future leaders. Therefore, it becomes essential to prepare them for a world where they can effectively navigate through the challenges of life. This starts with a curriculum that builds emotional intelligence, problem-solving abilities, and critical thinking.
One such curriculum is the SPROUT Curriculum, which stands out as the best preschool curriculum in India. It is created by India's most popular preschool brand — Bachpan. SPROUT offers unmatched quality of early education. It is a blend of multisensory learning tools, age-appropriate modules, and conceptual understanding through play. Such learning methods result in better communication skills, enhanced focus, and deeper understanding of the concepts among children.
But we also cannot ignore the importance of holistic development. A curriculum that emphasizes the overall well-being of children makes them capable of succeeding academically, socially, and emotionally. In a discussion at Shiksha ki Pariksha, Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan stressed the importance of adopting a more holistic approach to learning, emphasizing understanding over rote memorization.
This approach is becoming more and more popular in preschools to create well-rounded children through an efficient curriculum. SPROUT actively supports this approach. With 35000+ hours of devoted research, aligned with NEP 2020 and NCF-FS 2022, this curriculum provides a strong foundation for preschoolers. Ajay Gupta, the founder of Bachpan, shared his insights about the curriculum with the Times Business News. He remarked, 'Our SPROUT Curriculum is not only a significant achievement but also a movement in early childhood education, and its adoption is gaining an increasing amount of influence across the country.'
A well-structured and holistic-focused curriculum lays a strong foundation for the children that lasts a lifetime. No matter what changes occur in jobs or technologies in the future, our young learners will be well prepared to deal with such changes.

Henry Perky: The Shredded Wheat King
From law practice to rail cars to politics, Henry Drushel Perky (1843–1906) was a man of many pursuits. His drive to succeed in whatever he aimed to do led him to change the most important part of everyone's day: breakfast. Born in 1843 in Holmes County, Ohio, Perky's childhood life appears rather obscure. When he was 18 years old, however, he did participate in the Civil War for the Union, according to the Worcester Historical Museum. His time in the war appears rather brief: He was honorably discharged in 1862. In 1865, he married Susanna Melissa Crow with whom he had one son, Scott Henry Perky (1880–1958).

Exploring Columbus streetcar strike of 1910
COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) – One hundred and fifteen years ago, Columbus saw the first day of a strike that would last several months. Columbus Railway, Power and Light Company operated lines that ran through the heart of the city and extended to communities like Westerville. The protest crippled everyday life by leaving people without a critical mode of transportation. Hundreds who stood on the picket line also witnessed extreme violence as a push for better wages reached a fever pitch. Ohio updates law on golf carts and slow-moving vehicles The year was 1910. On the streets of Downtown, Columbus Railway, Power and Light Company employees, making roughly $50 a week, gathered for a mass meeting, wanting to form a union. 'Workers were asking for a little bit more money and a little bit fewer hours,' Columbus Metropolitan Library's Special Collections Manager Aaron O'Donovan said. Library records indicate that on July 24, 1910, a massive strike brought hundreds to the Ohio Statehouse and South High Street. Workers wanted their 12-hour shifts reduced, and walking off the job brought streetcar service to a halt. 'This huge strike caused all sorts of violence and crowding in the streets, and they had to bring the National Guard within a few days of the strike,' O'Donovan said. 'It was quite violent.' The library's Ohio Transportation Collection includes pictures captured during the strike. The collection includes images taken from the 1800s through the 1950s. 'Anything from dynamite in cars to throwing rocks at passengers and conductors, conductors shooting strikers,' O'Donovan said of the violence. 'We had acid attacks of conductors. We had people throwing acid in conductors' faces.' When police couldn't control the violence, the governor called in the National Guard. More than 4,000 troops converged on Columbus that summer. The collection also shows troops and their horses camped out on the grounds of Goodale Park and the Ohio Statehouse. Troops even blocked traffic in front of Trinity Episcopal Church at East Broad and South Third streets. Without paper mill, toxic underground plume could rise and spread in Chillicothe Columbus residents showed support for striking workers by refusing to use the streetcar. They also served coffee to those on the picket line and passed out handbills. 'The other thing you'll notice in the collection is a number of companies are advertising and have big wagons driving people downtown,' O'Donovan said. He said workers wanted about $1 added to their weekly salary. 'We had all this violence and then nothing really came of it,' O'Donovan said. 'They didn't recognize the union, all these people were hurt. One person died, he got hit in the head with a rock. He got hit in the head with a rock while trying to get to work.' The strike ended on Oct. 18, 1910. To explore more about the strike and other events in Columbus' history, visit the library's my history page by clicking here. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
