IT'S MY BIRTHDAY !!!

Hello everyone!

Guess what today is... It's my birthday! And it is APJ Abdul Kalam sir's Birthday too! 

After waiting for an entire year for this day, here it finally is. And I had a lot of fun at school today too. The usual custom at our school is that children wear their birthday dresses and distribute something in their classes. It usually is pens, chocolates or sweets. 

But I think pens, chocolates, and 

sweets are something, everyone 

does, and I'm not like everyone, otherwise, I wouldn't be writing this blog, right? So I sat brainstorming alone at night and came up with a brilliant idea that everyone at home and school loved.

 My class teacher said it  

was a very thoughtful gift to give.

White daisy seed Pots

Instead of giving away all those things, I decided to do something for the environment. Mum ordered 50 recycled black plant pots, and we kept 4 white daisy seeds in each of them. I thought that it would be a really nice thing to give away white daisy seeds to my friends and teachers. They'll go and plant it at home, and maybe when the flowers will come they will remember me? 

Whoever celebrates their birthday, their kid's birthday or any of their family's, please consider this idea to give away and make the earth green!

My Jungle Safari 

Hi everybody! This is my watercolour painting which was selected for the second round of an art competition. I made this drawing because I think that tigers are very courageous and majestic. In India, there are many tiger reserves but the tiger population is sadly, fast depleting. I like tigers and  maybe we can save them before its too late.

Tiger Tiger Burning Bright ...

"Tyger Tyger Burning Bright, 
in the forests of the night
What immortal hand or eye,
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?"

The tiger is the pride of India. It is a majestic and elegant big cat that roams on the lands of our country. I have made a sketch of a tiger.

Do tell me how it is!

Groaaaaar !!!!

The jungle is full of surprises and mysteries, preys and predators, different varieties of strange and mind boggling creatures. One of them is the majestic and proud cat that we know as the  Tiger. It has stripes, which are known to be as unique as our fingerprints. The tiger has reddish orange fur and is in the species Panthera. It is the Panthera Tigris. They hunt alone and generally at night. A tiger is known to stalk prey already 20 times before killing it. Tigers are good swimmers too. There are atleast five species of tigers.

In India there are royal bengal tigers in the Sunderbans. Now sadly there are less tigers left in the world due too poaching and hunting. We can save the tigers if we don't buy the medicine made out of them. Almost every part of a tiger can be used for something, even the whiskers! So if we don't buy the product of tigers the Tiger market won't flourish and nobody will buy it. Then if no one will buy then the hunters won't have any profit and will stop killing the cat. One more reason that can be a reason for extinction of this species is deforestation and loss of natural habitat . We can stop deforestation by not cutting trees, not buying things made by wood and trying to plant more and more trees as possible. Saving tigers will be a lot good ! 

So friends,

                        Save  Tigers!
