Reading the comments on this thread, makes me think of a concept hard to grasp for people on developed countries: Before you can learn, you must first fulfill your basic living necessities. Most low income children in Peru (where I write from) don't have the luxury of free time to "learn by having fun" like lot's of us did when kids. The reality here is that a small child spends most of his time "producing" something for their household, be it helping on farming, selling on the street, taking care of siblings or the like. The reason why cellphone penetration is so high over here is precisely because the device helps them with this activities.
