KEC Green Games
Mumbai
KEC Green Games is founded by educationists and cognition facilitators who work closely with generational artisans and urban marginalised communities across India. The brand focuses on handcrafted cultural games and toys made using wood, natural cloth fibre, and paper. These materials are chosen for their tactile quality and for being safe and familiar to work with and use. Each piece is developed in collaboration with artisans who have practiced their craft across generations.
The journey into this work began with years of engaging young minds and observing how increased digital exposure affected individuality, attention, and resilience. This led to a shift toward traditional play, storytelling, and cultural games that have existed across societies for centuries. The artists curate each product based on relevance today, the artisan’s comfort with the craft, and fair economic value. Production time varies depending on complexity, but every piece is handmade and relies fully on skill developed over many years. Through these games, the artists aim to reintroduce hands-on play and create moments where children and adults can reconnect with shared forms of learning and leisure.
