RE: POB TALK 10/08/2021 - #73

I would love to be with my old friends and play badminton and kho-kho with them. I miss that time when we used to be so carefree and play like that's the only thing we were supposed to do. OMG, those days are never going to come back :(

I also miss driving my bi-cycle.. Although it's not something I can't do now but still, that was an era :)

Sounds lovely, I see what you mean regarding the bicycle. As a kid it's so different from now. You feel your world is 10x of what it used to be when you start exploring by bike.

Badminton I know and played but what is kho-kho?


Posted via proofofbrain.io

Kho-kho is a game where all but 3 participants sit on their knees to chase the remaining 3. The one who runs to chase can pass their turn to others by tapping their back. It's not a very popularly known sport but commonly played by school children. It used to be very interesting, i don't know if kids these days play it or not.

Ahh that sounds a lot like a game I teach during my kids self defense classes, except we call it zombie tag and we start with one kid on the knees who needs to throw others on to the ground to turn them into "zombies" . Then when another kid becomes a zombie both chase the remaining kids until all become zombies :-)

Haha nice one. These are all self-developed games that form great memories for us as children. I remember playing a lot of games back in my childhood other than the regular common sports.

These games are really important in the development and interacting with other kids. Especially nowadays where there's a lot of screen time, getting the playtime in for kids is important in my opinion

Yes for sure. I make it a point to take my kid to the play area for an hour every day so that he develops the habit of going down and playing with friends. He already seems so interested in spending time with the kids, taking swings and looking at the pretty girls, lol. But ya, you are right, this screen time and technology has kind of taken away the childhood from the children.

Wait what? He's not taking swings at other kids is he? :-P hope you're referring to the actual swing to sit on. I think if balanced it's good, I mean look at us.. Huge part is spend online and we need knowledge on technology. But as a child you can't ONLY use screens and that is where things are headed.

Nice to see your kid enjoys some outdoor time with the other kids :-)

Aah we have something like that here! I don't remember how we call it though because it's been a while haha

Sounds similar to the game it/tag.

Definitely I agreed nwith you also,those Friend that we make at that stage at times can be terms as the best and the truest friend ever,cause their intentions and character towards us are very true and they really care about each other happiness as all we do and after is to see each other laughing and play
