Pasha is totally engrossed in his computer game.
He could sit there four hours and hours.
During my era, we climbed trees (I could only manage the mangosteen tree), we climbed hills, we chased chickens, we chased birds, we played with sticks, we played with slippers, we played with rubber bands, we raced frogs, we raced in cardboard boxes and many more physical stuffs. We had lots of fun!
Now, kids still do most of the things above. The only different is that they do most of those things virtually and digitally, on their hi-tech gadgets. And they have fun!
Are they the same? We can’t even compare, can we?

Papabear,
how true..the younger ones in our family have been exposed to these modern gadgets that they prefer to stay indoors..thou with them living in kampung they do go out and play outside but within the compunds.
I played those games that you mentioned and more (hv u tried “ikan laga”,main perang2..haha..rough games jugak)..but of course now I join the modern club-main angry bird, etc etc..
