Q. Is there any scope for improvement ?
Ans. Yes, there is a good scope for improvement.
Suggestions:
1. To avoid the use of food items in preparing a TLM, instead of using cumin seeds (jeera), you can use anything (like ball bearings) that will produce an audible output for preparing the dice.
2. You can also place the reference sheet that will be used by the kids to understand the tactile markings on the left hand side of the chart.

Idea: Based on the traditional Indian Snake and Ladders Board Game.

Reflections I feel, if there is something common that exists among different religious scriptures and teachings, it is love. The core principles of spirituality, perceived and experienced in different ways or forms on Earth, revolve around love and forgiveness. Though some of the scriptures hang on to a past and a future and some hang on to living in the present, by making the most of your time (every second, every minute) on Earth.
The life of Jesus, stories and parables shared by Him, also revolves around love and forgiveness. His words, deeds, compassion and selfless love point to a way of living that is built on nothing but true love. I feel God created Love and Man created Religion. And I believe nothing will stand the test of time but Love, because, God is Love (though we see Him/Her in different forms or call Him/Her by different names).

About Aesop
Aesop
was a Greek storyteller born in approximately 620 BC. Tradition says
he was born as a slave, but developed a real talent for fables that
were used to teach truths in a simple, understandable way.
Reflection Over the years, I have begun to question everything I see, hear or read. Memories fade away, a lot gets lost in translation and what we see, perceive and infer defers from person to person. God is true love and it's hard for me to believe or see God in any other form. God, rather true love, exists. It is that inevitable and invincible force that lights our way. And if we believe in this force (or see it in the form of a divine being or divine beings, whether as a man or as a woman or as a spirit with no form), we tend to see miracles all around us. It is what we believe in or how we see the world that makes all the difference. I invite you to watch 'The Da Vinci Code' with an open mind (not as the word of truth but as a thought provoking movie). Have we bound our divine beings based on our society's perception of what is right or wrong ? or based on our beliefs about how divine beings should be ?
