Game-based learning is becoming popular in the academic discussion of Learning Technologies. However, even though the educational potential of games has been thoroughly discussed in modern days, teaching to small kids became difficult due to the short attention spans of them. In addition to traditional methods of learning and teaching, such as reading books and newspapers, a huge variety of online educational resources are available to provide an atmosphere of fun and interactive designs to keep children engaged.
