Toybank starts its Rural set ups for this financial year
Toybank teams travel for 500km to spread its Impact
centers at Wada, Thane district. We had
planned this visit in association with Impact India Foundation, an organization
working on developing the health scenario in Thane district. All the
schools/ashramshala’s are in the interiors of Wada where the children have very
less access to play. All they would know are few outdoor games played in a
group.
Play for them is the Luxury. And our team was here to
tell them that it’s not, but their right.
And to have FUN!
The first highlight to mention here is the SMILES on the children faces & the curiosity
to PLAY J when we opened the huge cartons full of games.
During this three day visit we covered 2409 kids of Wada from 11 different schools. Our team
conducted training for approximately 50
schools teachers making them understand all the games provided in the Impact
centers. The fun part of the training is
to motivate these teachers to play all the games. And Yes! They do play J
Teachers of all the schools & ashramshalas would
play a very important role for involving & motivating the kids to learn
through play. The children would also
use few educational games in their classroom learning.
Through our centers the children would get access to variety
of games from puzzles to blocks, educative to fun-learning, indoor to outdoor
games. Toybank’s focus would be to provide them a platform to help the children
develop their social emotional 7 intellectual skills through these games.
