I think games play a very important part in our lives and everyone either loves watching or playing a particular game. I love to play cricket. I also like to play those indoor games, with my family, like chess or ludo.

2. Do you think adults should play games?

I believe every individual should play games. Games help in the mental and physical exercise without letting us know about the work we are doing. Adults require them the most. They usually lead a very stressful life. Games could prove to be a recreation activity for them wherein they could get to connect with their family and friends and also help them to stay fit.

3. What do children learn from games?

I think learning is the most underrated part of games. A child who plays a particular game learns a lot from it. He/she learns the importance of time management, team spirit. He/she learns how to respect every opinion and still be distinguished. For example-: a child playing football knows that it is not about who scored how much, it is about whether the team won or not. Even more they learn how to accept failures. So, I think a games help in an all-round development of a child and every child must play.

As a child I played a lot of games. We used to play cricket, football, badminton, kho-kho, hide and seek. I also enjoyed playing monopoly, ludo, chess and even carom. Playing these games with my friends or brothers and sisters, used to be real fun.

5. What games are popular in your country today?

Our country cherishes every kind of sport. However, cricket is the one sport that unites the entire country. People of my country are crazy about cricket and you will find cricket teams in every colony of our country. However, with time and some attempts by government, people are now even paying attention to games such as kabaddi, tennis and football.

6. Do you think mental games like chess are good for you?

I personally think yes. Chess or any other mental game, inculcates the habit of taking decisions and even more taking right decisions in the stressful times. Other games like sudoko improves the analyzing power of an individual.
