What is the full form of LKG?

Answer:

LKG: Lower Kindergarten

The full form of LKG is “Lower Kindergarten“. Kindergarten specifies a babysitter or nursery school for the 3-4 years old children. It is a German word which literally means “garden for children”. Lower Kindergarten (LKG) is a preschool educational approach based on playing, singing, practical activities such as drawing, and social interaction as part of the transition from home to school. Such institutions were originally created in the late 18th century in Bavaria and Alsace to serve children whose parents both worked outside home. The term was coined by the German Friedrich Fröbel, whose approach globally influenced early-years education. The duration of LKG is one year. The children spend around 3-4 hours in LKG in a day and are engaged in a wide range of lessons, learning activities and recreational activities.

In the US, kindergarten is usually part of the K-12 educational system. In most state and private schools, children begin kindergarten at age 5 and attend for one year. In India, there are only informal directives pertaining to pre-primary education, for which pre-primary schools and sections need no affiliation. Directives state that children who are three years old on 31 September in the given academic year are eligible to attend Nursery and Kindergarten classes. LKG has an important role in the child’s growing up years because the concepts that are learned during the LKG will help the child when it will move to UKG.
