As I mentioned in the previous post that I am moving to Vishakapatnam. Most of our stuff is packed and I am all set to move the moment we get a house there . I packed all the books and games of my children not realising that they would soon have Autumn break and would find it difficult to keep themselves busy. My daughter loves to draw and colour but my son was finding it difficult to keep himself entertained without books so I ordered these books from "flipkart" which I guess are a hot favourite amongst kids of this age.
"Diary of a Wimpy kid". I must add that I found them interesting myself and imagine how starved my son was of a reading material that he read one book a day and finished off or should I say devoured the three in three days.
He is eagerly awaiting the arrival of three more which I must say are delivered even before the promised date.
Right now, while I am typing this post they are playing hide and seek. I remember an incident as a six year old when I was playing hide and seek with my cousins in the farm house at my grandparents place , I found such a great hiding place that I wasn't found for a long time and then when I got bored of waiting and decided to make an appearance I realised to my horror that the game was being continued many times over without me and they had very conveniently given up looking for me. I swallowed my wounded pride and wished they had sent a search party rather than playing on as if nothing were missing.
Hope the kids of this generation keep these kiddish games going on.
