Children Toy Foundation is the only institute of its kind working for the Right of the Child to Play since 1982. We have helped and guided to set up 393 toy/game libraries covering 36 states and territories in Schools, Orphanages, Women homes, Sr. citizen homes, NGOs hospitals, with institutions and even in jails and desert. We have 1 static Khelvigyan center and 2 mobile vans through which we serve 12 municipal schools and at Bhola ka Purva – Pratapgagh District UP, 20 village schools. About 10 thousand children benefit directly from our projects. and many more through network of toy/game libraries at different places. .

Dr. Radhakrishnan has rightly said,” the end product of education should be a free creative man, who can battle against historical circumstances and adversities of nature.” Swami Vivekanand has also rightly said,” Education is the manifestation of the perfection already in man.” Late FRM President Shri Abdul Kalam said” My message especially to young people is to have courage to think differently, courage to invent, to travel the unexplored path, courage to discover the impossible and to conquer the problems”. Above messages are relevant to our work and play with mind games develop above virtues in children who will be our future youth. What’s new? we have set up under the project 36 libraries in 36 states /U.T. same day same time, 36 mind and educational game libraries in all 36 states/ U. T. on 25th November 2023 at 12 pm. 30 Libraries in 30 states are with Vidya Bharati Schools. 4 Libraries in 4 states are with Kendriya Vidyalaya schools, and 1 is in Vivekananda Vidyalaya and 1 in Sulabh Public school..

The most significant feature was 1) The delegates were either principals or teachers of various states. 2) Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan chose to send 5 assistant trainers from their 5 zones. we feel that their reports after our training on games should play an important role for concerned authorities to replicate khelvigyan project in all their schools. We are trying to pursue education ministry to work out a policy honoring Right of the Child to Play and Recreation. Additional BONUS: We have created 2 libraries. 1) Rishan Edutainment Center at Nair Hospital. 2) Khelvigyan at Keshav Shrusti, Bhayandar We will further plan interstate contest, national level contests in Mind & Fun games. SAARC countries can participate and idea can grow into International Olympics in mind and fun games for children, the idea which was acknowledged & acclaimed in 1993, world conference jointly hosted by International Toy Library Association (ITLA) and International Association for Child Right to Play (IPA) at Melbourne, Australia. Hidden agenda is to reach out to children as fast as possible and to Generate jobs for educators/teachers and also to boost Toy Industries in India, as after the vans we intend to set up libraries in villages also. We want to educate children beyond reading and writing. We want them to grow into thinking citizen. Children easily get to play video games, they easily get into sports like cricket, football. We say change the way you look at games (take to mind, educational, family Board games) and it changes the way you look at PLAY. Mind games teaches them to look at a situation from all directions, look with all prospective which will be very useful habit in future. Play in the family will be very useful for family bonding and socialization. Doctors say it’s a good idea for people to bear in mind the importance of exercising their brains. .
