Most of us have watched Sesame street at some phase of our life .
I love Sesame street philosophy of educational value without taking the fun away .
A constant search for how emerging medium can help children learn.
The Indian version galligallisimsim also looks like a lot of fun.

FABLE-Fun Table
Finally I blog about a project I have done actually my baby :)
FABLE is an interactive multiplayer edutainment table for children with
various abilities.
FABLE is a means of collaborative learning. It is a platform on which
numerous educational as well as entertainment games can be played. It
has been inspired by the traditional mode of interaction among children.
My research was done at Association of People with Disability, Bangalore
(An inclusive school). Three lessons have been made for the prototype.
The fun lessons help children learn sentence formation. The topics for the
story were decided keeping in mind the children's life.
The prototype has been developed after a lot of iterations. With the
improvement of technology FABLE is sure to become better by the day,
bringing more and more children together.
If anybody would like to help me in completing it so that it can be used in the school are welcome.
