THAYAM: This is a game of dice Usually altogether 3 or 4 boys and girls participated. Palm nuts or sea shells were used as dice. Palm nuts were collected from the near by compounds. The flat side of them were rubbed on hard surface to make the face of the dice. The board was drawn on the floor . Each player made his coins out of different materials such as stalk of the leaves. coconut broom sticks.or small fruits etc etc .The dice were thrown into the air in different styles with different sounds . These sounds are in special tunes which can be heard in the neighborhood.And that is the main attraction of the game . There will be many by standers encouraging their friends and some betting also takes place. Very often the game ends in petty quarrels The charm is that in the end every one reconciles and become friends in search of another entertainment Enmity was not in our dictionary. Even the quarrels were moments of enjoyment . In each locality such bathes of playmates can be seen like a cluster of butter flies. Games added strength to our bonds and molded our social fabric strong and color full .
