The paper boat

I made a paper boat today. I looked in a book to make a paper boat. I am going to show you the steps of making the paper boat. I made it by folding a rectangle shaped piece of Origami paper. Origami is the Japanese word. My Japanese friend Shion gave me an Origami book and two packs of Origami papers. I like the Japanese art of Origami. Please look at the pictures that I took so you could understand what I did. After the paper boat was ready I put water in the sink of my bathroom and closed the drain hole. Then I put the paper boat on the water of the sink. I was curious about it. I was happy because it floated. I was not happy because my sister threw the paper boat away soon after.

 

 

The End

The amazing growing creatures

I got a toy that has a frog and a lizard. I got this toy on March 2, 2009. My dad bought it for me at Target shopping center. My sister gave the toy to me as my birthday gift. I opened it on March 3, 2009 and then I put the toy in a bucket. I also put water inside the bucket. The toy lizard and frog were growing each day. I measured the size of the frog and lizard everyday. I took pictures of them too and I also marked dates on the pictures. They kind of looked like real animals. Today, I am showing you the pictures of the lizard and the frog how they grew up. You will see they were so tiny in the beginning. In the middle they looked like kids. They looked like adult after few more days.

A Toucan

A toucan lives in the rain forest. He has a long beak. His beak is the mix of red, green and yellow color. Today I am going to tell you how to draw a toucan. Please click on the "play" button of the video below to see how to draw a toucan. I hope you can draw one too! I learnt to draw a toucan in my class. It was not so hard to draw a toucan. I wish to visit a rain forest to find a toucan in real.

I was not able to put my blog on Saturday and Sunday because I was busy helping my mom and my father to put up the decorations in my home. We put up balloons, flowers, ribbons, and paper lanterns on walls and ceiling. I brought the stuffs like tapes, scissors, balloons, and strings for my mom. We were decorating the room for celebrating my birthday. It was not my actual birthday. My actual birthday according to Nepalese calendar was on Tuesday. But we invited Roze didi, Slesha nini, Pawan mamabaje, Maiju, Jayeswor Uncle, and also Aunts on Sunday.

Egg with two yolks

When my Baba was making me an egg there was two yolks in the same egg. It was amazing. So we took a picture of it. I am going to tell you about the egg in my blog today.

Please click on the "play" button of the video below to listen the story. Thank you.

The egg is delicious to eat.  The egg has yolk, chalazas, egg white inside the shell. The yolk is bright yellow color. I and my sister like to eat the yolk very much. There are two types of egg, white egg and brown egg. I love brown egg because it tastes good. My sister likes white egg. The brown egg has a bright yellow yolk it also look like light orange color. But white egg has light yellow color yolk. When my father was making me an egg there was two yolks in the same egg it was amazing. It was special to me. I ate the egg with two yolks inside, my sister thought I ate two eggs but I didn’t. I wish I could give her an egg with two yolks next time.

OK see you next week. Bye bye.

A shark boy

Today I will tell you a story. I wrote this story last week but I did not put it in the blog last week because I had made a prism last week. Also, I did not finish the pictures which illustrate the story. I finished the pictures today and also took the photo of the picture. My Baba helped me to put the picture and the story together.

I got hair-cut today. I also went to Target with my mom, and I was lost there. I was scared a lot. My name was announced by the mike and loud speaker, but I did not hear that. I was playing with some toys in the Target. My mom was trying to find me and another person helped me to find my mom. When I saw my mom, I ran to her and then started to cry. My mom was worried a lot.

A shark boy

Once upon a time there was a bad girl who loved to swim a lot because the water was warm. She liked warm water and she did not want other peoples to swim at all. A boy was mad at her so he wore his shark custom that could go under water. He sneaked into the water. When the girl saw the shark in the water she was scared a lot. The girl came out and ran to her home as fast as she could. She told what happened at the swimming pool. Her family did not believe her but she did not ever go back to the swimming pool. Every body said hurray and everybody got to swim happily again.

Making a Prism

Today I will make a prism and put it in the blog so every body could know how to make a prism. I love making new things in Saturday and Sunday but it is hard to think what to do. Sometimes my dad helps me.

A clap game

Today we played a clap game. My baba showed us how to play the clap game.

 

How to play the clap game 

First, two players sit facing each other. We need two peoples to play the clap game but if we have three peoples we have to take turns. This is how we play the clap game. We tap on our laps using both hands. Then we clap our hand. We tap our laps and clap again two more times. After then we clap with the other player just like when saying “give me five”. At that time, both players use right hand first, then clap and then use the other hand to clap with the friend. We have to sit or stand to play the clap game.

 

Then we played rocket shoot game that was fun and then I brought a shopping bag to my dad then he cut it into a rectangle then he rolled it and cut into thin slice. He put in his mouth and when he blow it then it sounded like a whistle.
