ABOUT PROBLEM STATEMENT
With the change in lifestyle and deepening of western influence, we see one striking difference between modern childhood and the children of previous generation, the lack of Indian games. Earlier games had a rich culturale and heritage value and were tools to pass on some ancestral knowledge. They were also suitable for all ages and increased the interaction between generations.
