ELEZE

> 108 pieces. 90-100 minutes. Late evening. Zeel solves the  Peppa pig Jigsaw puzzle gifted by her dearest Satish Mama and Kavya Mami! On her own !! At every milestone, she would turn her head towards me and remark with joy "Mumma dekho Daddy pig ban gaya,Mumma dekho Peppa pig ban gaya!..........".   I flipped my eyes to see her achievement and matched her joy every time. It's IPL season now. My eyes lay on the IPL match while her's were on the puzzle.  Time flew and I got out first :) Tired, I moved on to get ready to sleep. She sat, not blinking an eye.  The clock was also waving past 10 in the night. Soon, Zeel came running and poured out all her excitement with "Mera ho gaya Mumma. Puzzle ban gayee!"

"What's in the name" - William Shakespeare had said. But, somehow, I get tempted to find a suitable name; whether its a baby name, a name for a blog or for my post. Like the one today. PLAVITY. I guess you might have guessed it already how it came into being :) This time, its only about Play time, play activity. No English, no Maths and no Hindi :) Well, can I start this without thanking once again, my dear cousin Dr Namrata Dave? She is so thoughtful to gift just the right games to my daughter Zeel! And of course VASCSC Science Shop - the company which created the play games. Now kids, if P is for PLAY you know who else has to be there. P for . . . . . . PEPPA !
