It is a delight to watch children play and make up games on their own. And at times, when children use their unique creative ideas and build something to play with, they deserve all the appreciation they can get from us. Two children in Madhya Pradesh are being showered with praises online after a video of them playing and having a gala time in a makeshift seesaw went viral.
The video shows a long, curved log placed on the tip of a smaller log that is stumped to the ground. The children are seen sitting on the opposite ends of the log and spinning around and going up and down like a seesaw and a merry-go-round, all at once.
