Numbers

Childhood memories are sweet. Recalling my days of childhood when learning numbers and nursery rhymes like

One, two
Buckle my shoe,
Three, four
…………………….
Nineteen, twenty
My plate’s empty.

This nursery rhyme is an old nursery rhyme which is still popular among the kids, and it is used in many preschools and schools.

Another one that comes to mind is traditional, old nursery rhyme with an unknown author and is very popular among the kids, and they love singing it.

Five little ducks
Went out one day
Over the hills and far away
Mother duck said
“Quack, quack, quack, quack”
But only four little ducks came back.
………………………………
“Quack, quack, quack.”
And all of the five little ducks came back.

“Counting nursery rhyme”, a great way for teaching children counting in a fun way.

So, go ahead. Sing, count, learn and have fun!

A Jubilant Peacock

The peacock, the national bird of India, represents a harmonious unity of vivid colors and also symbolises the country’s multi-religious and multilingual unity in cultural diversity.

A dancing peacock represents jubilant spirits. Early morning when the sky is overcast with monsoon clouds, and the female is nearby, it is a spectacular treat to watch him dance. A peacock’s body is covered with attractive feathers. The male peacock opens its feathers before the rain. They dance by opening up their feathers to attract female peahens to mate. This is the reason why peacocks mate mainly in the period April to September.

For an Indian farmer, a good crop and a good monsoon raise their hopes of reaping a bumper harvest. When the much-awaited first rain of the monsoon season starts, the farmers of a village spontaneously burst into a merry dance and joyously sing.

Face

Guess, who is peeping through the gate?

She was eagerly awaiting to be welcomed inside. There was a barbecue party held in the garden by a local friend.
