Midday Brief, Sunday, May 12, 2019

Children challenge each other at a game of latim (spinning tops), spinning viciously on the ground. Latim -- also known as lattoo -- is an inseparable part rural childhood.

The player whose latim spins the longest wins. The photo was taken in Barishal city’s Rasulpur area on May 11, 2019. Photo: STAR/ Titu Das
