“WE PLAY - KHEL” is a new campaign under our running state level program “WE ASSIST (Children)” which is committed to provide a clean space (following the Swachh Bharat Mission) to students to sit during their lunch time and also to provide a small playscape to have fun games during their free time in all Government schools in Rajasthan, INDIA.

The duration of the campaign is very long as we target to cover almost all the 15000+ Government schools in Rajasthan state and keep covering 10 government schools in a month on district basis.

Note: These acts transmit a big message of necessary fundamental education to lay the foundation of healthy environmental education and help to develop the sense of responsibility towards cleanliness & ecological balance.

Thoughts behind this Campaign:

Children are the future of a nation and are the best change agents, be it in the family or the community in which they live. It is therefore crucial to catch them young and inculcate in them feelings of empathy and conscience so that they grow up as responsible individuals. It sensitizes the children towards various causes and let them realize the privileged status.

Children who play outdoors regularly are more curious, self-directed and likely to stay with a task longer. Nowhere is better than the outdoors for running, jumping, throwing balls, catching, pulling things, lifting and carrying objects. All these actions require motor skills that improve with practice. Children playing outside get aerobic exercise and gain skills, such as pushing and pulling outdoor play equipment. Lot of studies has done, and the results show that children burn more calories outdoors, helping to prevent obesity and strengthen bones and muscles. Playing in the sun builds vitamin D in the body, which means stronger bones and less likelihood of chronic diseases. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, many children have vitamin D deficiencies.

Green school ground encourages students to be more well-mannered, tolerant and polite with each other.

Why it is needed:
