"And somewhere there are engineers
Helping others fly faster than sound.
But, where are the engineers
Helping those who must live on the ground?"-- Young Oxfam Poster
Arvind Gupta has done a incredible contribution to the learning system of Indian kids. He has conceptualised numerous toys / projects / DIYs so that Indian Children can experiment with simple, inexpensive materials and learn science through it. In the process , he has published books , articles to share this vast treasure of DIY TOYS.
His website and books is a must read for every school going child and his parents. Instead of spending tons of money on the branded toys from Mattel / Hasbro et al , let us use these treasures and get the pleasure of making our own toys.
