Mina and Yasin meet these cheeky terracotta figurines in the courtyard of a house in Mohenjo-daro. They love to play. What did real children have to play with 4000 years ago? Mousover the buttons for info!
What's he got in his hand? It could be a clay disc for a throwing game called Pittu. An archaeologist thinks so, because he excavated discs just like Pittu discs. If children teach younger children how to play, a game could last for thousands of years!

Discs for a throwing game
Bird Whistles
What are these? A terracotta toy ram with a bird tail, on wheels. A terracotta maze. Marbles carved in stone, (agate and jasper). Perhaps adults played with these?
