Interactive Story Mission
Join Coach and Pariskhit for a 10-minute football training story. Children work through 12 activities with big buttons, kind feedback, hints when they get stuck, and a badge and stars at the end.
- Find the Cylinder: Tap the solid that is a cylinder.
- Roll or Slide?: Tap a card. Then tap the group.
- Build the Block: Count the cubes in each layer.
- A Cube Wall: Drag the number into the goal.
- Edges of a Boot Box: Count the edges.
- Corners of a Dice: Count the corners (vertices).
- Flat Face of a Cone: Drag the number into the goal.
- Name the Solid: Look at the picture.
- Will It Stay?: Kush stacks solids into a tower. Tap the solid that will not stay on top.
- Which Solid Am I?: Think about the faces.
- Obstacle Course: Count all the solids.
- View from Above: Imagine looking down from the stand.
Note for Parents & Teachers
This follows the NCERT Class 3 chapter "Toy Joy". An edge is where two faces meet and a corner (vertex) is where edges meet. At home, build towers with boxes, tins and balls and talk about which shapes stay put, which roll and which slide.
