Happy and Healthy Living: the Chapter Story
A short read for Class 4 before you play. These notes are written for this page and are not copied from the textbook.
🌾 A grain's long journey
Before a hot chapati reaches your plate, a grain of wheat travels a long way. A seed is sown in the soil, it drinks water, it soaks up sunlight and it grows. Then it is harvested, taken to a shop and finally cooked at home. Farmers, sellers and cooks all do their part, animals help too, and soil, water and air quietly support the whole journey.
🙏 Thank you, everyone
If we stop to think of everyone who helped, we begin to enjoy our food more. In many parts of India, festivals are a way of saying thank you to Mother Nature for the harvest. We can say thank you in small ways too, by thanking the cook and not leaving food behind.
🥜 Eating mindfully
Imagine sitting in a circle with your eyes closed while your teacher gives you a small seed. You feel its shape, taste it slowly and notice how it changes as you chew. This is mindful eating. When we go slowly and give each bite our full attention, food tastes better and we choose healthier things.
🍴 Valuing food
Every grain is precious. Keeping a food record for a week shows us how often we finish our food and how often we leave it. Taking only what we can finish is a simple way of respecting the people behind our meals.
⚽ Enjoy sports and yoga
Playing in the open air, running, jumping, cycling and skipping make our body strong and our mind cheerful. Easy yoga poses, done with a teacher's guidance, help us sit and stand well and feel calm.
😴 Sleep well too
After a day of play our body needs rest. A good night's sleep takes away tiredness, so we can focus and enjoy the next day. Too little sleep makes us cranky and sleepy.
💬 Feeling safe
Some touches, like a hug from a family member, make us feel safe. If a touch ever makes us feel uneasy or scared, we can say No and tell a trusted adult, such as a parent or a teacher. It is never our fault, and we do not have to keep it a secret.
Happy and Healthy Living Class 4 Activities
Read, play and learn about food, sports, sleep and safety. Earn up to 3 stars in every activity.
Happy and healthy living means taking care of our body and our mind. We feel happy when we eat food we enjoy, play with friends, rest well and feel safe with the people around us. In this chapter we learn that good habits come from small daily choices: how we eat, how we move, how long we sleep and how we speak up when something feels wrong.
Our food comes from many hands. Grains, pulses and vegetables grow in fields, and many people and animals help them reach our homes. When we remember them with gratitude, we enjoy every bite and waste less. Physical activity such as running, cycling, skipping and yoga keeps the body strong, and sleep helps it recover. Learning about safe and unsafe touch helps children stay protected.

Happy and Healthy Living Class 4 FAQs
What is Happy and Healthy Living in Class 4 EVS?
Happy and Healthy Living is Chapter 6 of the NCERT Class 4 book Our Wondrous World. It shows that a happy life needs good food, active play, enough sleep and a feeling of safety. It also teaches us to be thankful for the food on our plate.
How does food reach our plate?
A rice or wheat grain makes a long journey from the farm to our plate. Farmers, sellers and other people help along the way, and so do animals. Water, soil and sunlight also play an important role in this journey.
What is mindful eating?
Mindful eating means paying attention to what we eat and how we feel while eating. We eat slowly, feel the surface of the food with the tongue, chew gently and notice the flavour and the texture. It helps us enjoy food and make healthier choices.
Why should we not waste food?
Every grain is precious because many people worked hard to bring it to us. When we waste food we do not respect their efforts. A food record for a week helps us notice how much we eat and how much we waste.
Why are sports and yoga important for children?
Playing in open fields, running, jumping, cycling and skipping keep us strong and energetic. Yoga improves our posture and keeps us happy and active. The NCERT book Khel Yoga gives many more exercises and games.
Why do we need enough sleep?
Sleep takes away tiredness and makes us feel fresh. Without enough sleep it is hard to focus on work or play, and we feel tired, sleepy and irritable. Sleep is as important as eating healthy food and exercising.
What are a safe touch and an unsafe touch?
A safe touch, such as a comforting hug from a family member, makes us feel happy and comfortable. An unsafe touch makes us feel uneasy, scared, confused or uncomfortable, whether it comes from someone we know or a stranger. We can say No and tell a trusted adult such as a teacher or a parent.
