Paneer Paratha

Gaming is such an addiction - be it a 12yr or a 6yr old, both can play the same video game. Yes, believe it or not, they both are going crazy with the shooting...

Video games these days are so advanced that, they look so natural and very close to as though a person playing on the screen.

My son always argues that it improves one's motor skills, hand-eye coordination, and logical thinking. We also have a few traditional games and board games which have made it to the screens.

But whatever said and done the effect of sitting together and playing in group is by far better than just playing against a machine or even a person behind the same. The latter doesn't need any s/w or h/w upgrade or even any body aches and pains too.....

I think board games let us bond well and can become a routine soon while screens can just be a filler here and there.
We enjoy the range from traditional games to the latest board game over this holiday season - alguli mane, chowka bhara, Uno, Game of Life, Scrabble, Monopoly, etc

Overall it is a good time to bond with your friends and family!
