Hello......

The Christmas is coming, along with vacation. So children are very happy, because it is time to enjoy. So I introduce a new puzzle game for all, who are like to play. This puzzle mainly focused on children, It increase the thinking ability of children. The main interesting thing is that it do not need money. All materials present in every home. It need only one thing, matches. It is a puzzle with match stick to complete the squares with given number of stick movement. Here uses matches so it is a "FIRE GAME".

Now, I like to tell something about children. Children are very curious. They study everything from around us by using the eye, ear etc.. So we give some special for them they become change the whole world. All children have this power but they loose in their childhood. One minute think about this, then we remember that sometimes we are victim of this. So think seriously about it.

Children mind is very interesting. They have a special skill, it is that they can capture everything in a small time. So the school study is changed from direct book study to a real time experimental study they understand very well higher than us. They understand basic physics laws and mathematics very well by doing some small experiments or games. So her I try to introduce a game which is helpful for children.

So lets start it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
