We started to introduce sports activities to Dhanesh one by one. We showed him the badminton racket and shuttlecock in native.
He immediately jumped and said "hey two kosu bat".
We had been using Electronic-Mosquito-Swatter / Electronic-Fly-Swatter since Dhanesh was a toddler. The "Mosquito Bat" rather we call it as "kosu bat" (nativity name for mosquito)
below is the picture for mosquito bat. The one on right is with torch and is Dhanesh favourite as he used to play with it by covering the torch light with hankey.
It took some time for him to understand that it is a sport item. We demonstrated how to play.
He wanted to play with that , but the bat was tall enough as him. Initially, he had bit tough time to play with. Too early to play badminton at the age of three. Still he went on to play as he had experience with swatting using the mosquito bat.
