I am sure
the above string of words must have transported you back to your childhood
days. We all know THE GREAT MEMORY GAME. Then there was ATLAS.
These games
hold special importance in my life since they remind me of the trips I made
with my family as a child. And it is not just me, my mom too always rejoices when
she reminisces about those trips.
It was a
wonderful idea because these were not any silly games but great learning
experiences.
My dear
mother, who must be sneezing as I write this, always makes sure to express how
we as kids added a different dimension to the trip. And I agree with her.
The fact is
that when a couple goes for a vacation, the nature of activities is very
different. It is usually like another honeymoon. They make impromptu plans;
some work, some don’t. However, when one has kids in the rear seat they have to
be a little cautious, a little more planned and a little more organised. Now that’s
not bad news! Believe me; with the little ones the trip takes a whole new
shape.
