Hi Amit,
very happy that you are taking the initiative to complete this activity. As
said by Emmanuel and Johnny the idea of activity is very good and can be
very interactive & helpful for children.
In case of any doubt regarding current code and idea , feel free to ping me
on email or irc (username : nitish).
I will be happy to resolve your queries.

Best of luck :)
