DD News, the public broadcaster of India, has started lockdown challenge for kids as they have been confined to the four walls due to the ongoing COVID-19 social distancing measures. The Government of India announced a two-week extension of the lockdown last week which was supposed to end on May 3.
The initiative by DD News is aimed at keeping the kids engaged in different activities and simultaneously use the time to enhance their activities during the lockdown period. The public broadcaster has asked viewers to share images and video clips of their kids if they have any magic trick up their sleeves.
Share photos & videos of your kids revealing what magic tricks they've got under their hats!
