Childhood Games: A Trip Down the Memory Lane

Childhood was the best part of life and childhood games were the most games; at least for most of us.

I grew up in Mumbai and played a lot of outdoor and indoor games as a child. I remember doing more than two dozen outdoor and indoor activities, other than cricket, football, badminton, or hockey.

Nowadays, children are mostly engrossed in social media and hanging around in malls but my childhood was filled with adventures and thrill.

In this blog post, I want to share some memories of the games I used to play as a child. Some of them like making a paper boat, flying a kite, ludo, snake and ladder, card game, hide and seek, lock and key, or playing video games might be known to people across the globe. Other games are Indian specialties.

I don’t remember the names of all of them but I am sharing pictures collected from the internet. I hope these pictures will take you back in your magical childhood days.
