Abstract:This article aims at exploring how children, particularly in rural areas of Bihar, an economically poor but culturally rich state of India, enjoy their leisure with limited resources available to them. Broken bangles, tamarind seeds, old clothes and even hard covers of old notebooks become sports equipment and a source of enjoyment for them, especially for those who cannot afford buying expensive goods.

“…With reference to the development of modern science, this discussion has extended over two centuries right from its cradle, namely, the German hermeneutic, phenomenological, historical and dialectical thought. It is rooted in Hegel's work, the Phenomenology of Spirit 1 , first written in 1807, followed by a development of phenomenology by Husserl 2 16 and Robert Park 17 and other inaugurated sociologically important approaches, such as symbolic interactionism, ethnography, ethnomethodology and other. This School also witnessed, at the hands of its first director, Albion Small, the birth of the world's first sociology journal in 1895, namely, the American Journal of Sociology, whose early writings were especially based on qualitative field research.…”

“…The main medium in this process of reality construction, negotiation and transmission is language [13]. Knowledge of reality is not inherent and given to people, but comes from and is reinforced by social interactions [19,40,46,50,59]. In order to persevere it has to be continuously reaffirmed.…”

Economics can benefit through adopting various ideas from social psychology. Social and economic processes can be analysed at different levels: the microlevel (individuals), mesolevel (system structures), and macrolevel (whole socioeconomic system). Contrary to classic economic models, when making decisions, people do not consider all available information at the microlevelthis is not possible. Decisions may have many competing dimensions and there may be no single optimum. Whereas in traditional economy the main difference between the levels is the degree of aggregation, social constructionism studies how individuals cooperatively create, change and maintain their understanding of the world. Meanings arise as a result of coordinated action of humans who interpret their world by building models of it and how it functions. A natural way of acquiring meanings and conveying them to others is through narratives-stories that have a beginning, a body, and an end. Narratives exist at all levels of social reality. They provide the structure by which an individual can understand the world, with their roles in narratives individuals suggesting how to behave. Interacting individuals socially construct narratives bottom-up. Group narratives emerge from integration of stories describing individual experiences of actors. Shared narratives allow actors to find commonality in their experiences, find coherence in the flow of events and allow them to coordinate in common actions. At the macrolevel narratives define the system and its common culture. Sometimes narration may have more impact on an economy than hard data. Even the choice of which facts we refer to and those we do not may determine the leading narrative and hence the behaviour of people. Socio-economic processes can and should be analysed in line with narratives linking individuals, organisations and societies to better understand what is happening in the whole economic system.
