It is a collection of traditional games shared and
played avidly in the huge backyards when the mothers chit-chatted with
their friends, under shady trees during hot summers, on the slushy lanes
when the schools were closed and school grounds after the classes got over
.It will help relive one’s childhood days, for those who belong to a
generation just past .They will evoke special moments of sounds, sights
and sweat which were part of these games.
There was searching,
analyzing, laughing, bundled with physical activity.
Where are the
backyards gone? Why have school grounds shrunk? Where are all the flocks
of innocent children? Why is there so much silence in high rise buildings
in which families with children live? Don’t children play now? They do
play. But with a difference. They play with gadgets-e games. They dominate
the game scene in towns and cities now, sparing a few villages! Where are
the claps? Where are the hops? Faded? Explore The Fading Hops and Claps!
