2. Independence Day Sums with National Symbols 🧮Turn Ashok Chakras, peacocks, and kites into icons for solving simple addition or subtraction problems. For example: 🪁 + 🪁 + 🦚 = ?
3. Freedom Fighters Pattern Puzzle 🧩Design patterns using pictures of freedom fighters and ask kids to complete the sequence (e.g., Gandhi, Nehru, Gandhi, Nehru, ___?).
4. Tricolor Math Sorting 🎨Use colored buttons or circles in orange, white, and green. Sort them into groups, count, compare quantities, or build simple bar graphs.
5. “Count the Sweets” Independence Fair 🎊Draw an imaginary Independence Day food stall with laddoos, jalebis, samosas—have kids count or solve word problems like: "If 3 kids buy 2 laddoos each, how many laddoos are sold?"
6. Riddle Me Freedom! 🧠Combine math with brain teasers. Example: “I am a 2-digit number. My tens place is 7. My ones place is 5. What number am I?”
7. Kite-Shaped Number Maze 🪁Create a fun maze where kids can only follow a path of even numbers to reach the tricolor kite at the end!
