Wean away your kids from mobile phones with Channapattana toys!

It would certainly not be an exaggeration to say that mobile phones rule the roost in today’s world! 

Even when it comes to children, they spend a lot of time on these gadgets, risking not just their eyesight, but also their mobility. In simple terms, they can become couch potatoes! 

As the mobile phone addiction is becoming a big headache, giving parents some sleepless nights, here’s a simple-yet-effective solution that can dissuade their kids from spending long periods on mobile phones! In simple terms, these dolls are a godsend! 

Channapattana, in the Ramanagara district of Karnataka has etched a name for itself on the global map for its toys! 

This small town has the right solution to wean your kids away from mobile phones. These impressive toys are made from wood and non-toxic substances. When the kids play with them, parents can rest assured their kids are not in danger!

Bhupati, a toymaker, says: “As part of the toy-making process or lacquering, toy makers search specifically for Ale Mara orivory wood. They then dry it and cut it into different shapes and sizes. Later, they paint it in an appealing manner and breathe life into it! They also make sure only organic colours are used.” 

The toys are also gifted during festivals like Dasara and are a massive hit among people. In fact, Michelle Obama, wife of former US President Barack Obama had even purchased these dolls when she was in India. 

Rulers like Tipu Sultan and Maharaja of Mysuru were patrons of this art of toy-making. 

Next time, when your kids ask for mobile phones or other gadgets, you can safely make them digress towards these magnificent tolls! Also, by buying them, you would be giving these toymakers major employment opportunities.
