Both their own and their neighbors: how a resident of Aktau distracts children from gadgets

A resident of Aktau noticed that with the advent of the gadget boom, schoolchildren began to spend less time on the street. Trying to distract his and his neighbor’s children from the world of social networks, he painted multi-colored paths in front of the house’s entrance for playing “Hopscotch” of different types. The other day he “refreshed” them. According to him, the children became interested and play with enthusiasm.
