Whether children or adults, they must adapt to the environment in which they live. Adaptations must be acquired to adapt to that environment. And cold
When I came there from the tropics, I felt that the cold and mountain wind was a challenge posed by nature. But the people of that land had adapted to these elements. The human body temperature is 36.9 degrees Celsius, whereas the air temperature outside is ten degrees. The body has to produce more energy due to the possibility of heat loss from the body. It needs food rich in fat, oxygen, and clothing that does not let heat out.
Their staple food is rice and meat. A lot of butter is added to all the vegetables. The tea they drink is called 'Suja' (salt tea). Boil the powder of tea and basil leaves, add butter and salt
Drinks a lot. Instead of green water, drink homemade liquor called Chhang. Fatty yak meat, beef and pork are eaten daily as curry and greens. The meat of the animals is torn lengthwise and hung over the stove or in the sun to dry. Dried meat (sha kam) is eaten like candy and eaten with curry. The amount of oxygen-carrying hemoglobin in their body is high. So the oxygen reaches the cells. Fat and oxygen combine to produce energy and keep the body warm. Wear three or four layers of clothing. `Baku' is made of thick wool and `Keera' is a garment for men and women. Gloves, socks, shoes, and a hat to cover the head and face should be worn. All of this is explained so that you don't say 'Whoa,' when introducing my children
A child who comes to school from home has eaten stomach full of rice, drunken alcohol. Theh chew arecanut as it contains aracholinic acid which warms the body. While teaching and at intervals, they enjoy chewing dried meat. Local teachers also come after drinking alcohol.
Bathing is twice a month for school children. The natives bathe only once or twice a year. On alternate Saturdays of the month, the children will be taken to the river under the watchful eye of the teacher. First, everyone will wash and dry their clothes.Then dry wood is brought from the forest and they are burnt over many pebbles are piled up on the river bed. The hot stones are dropped it into the river water. Then the water
will be warmed up. They bathe with soap.
All these are done under the supervision of teachers.
The games consists of physical exercises that warms up the body. 'Dego', where a large stone is thrown at a target from a distance, and 'Archery', where an arrow is shot at a target that is almost two hundred meters away.
They play football and kabaddi. The walls of multi-storied houses are made of wood and clay and about one meter thick, so the cold does not penetrate. Also, there is a fireplace called 'Bukari' in the middle of the room to heat the room.
