Beta beta, yes papa..
Playing games, no papa..
Telling lies, no papa..
Turn the screen, Game over!!
I really don't think it's the kid's mistake. They don't have much of an option in these urban cities. The playful ambience exists no more. Flying kites, Gilli danda, latoo, hopscotch... Those stress relieving games were not only abundant in the fun quotient but also kept players fit. They are no more than ancient games that have been replaced by the New Generation Games on TV & Computers. They may seem more fun to kids but they do nothing more than decreasing physical activity and agility, increasing their laziness, spectacle numbers and not the very evident tummies!
I really wish those neighborhoods and games could be brought back because it is heart wrenching to see them enjoy addiction in the name of play. A better a solution could be a trip to villages (preferably you native). It would take you back to your memories and will contribute to your kids' healthy childhood. One which could always be a part of their nostalgia.
Cheers!
God Bless!!
