  Have you ever thought where does wool come from??? You must be thinking nature, if your answer is nature then you are wrong. It is animal's skin!!! Many things come from animals skin. Let's talk about a few of them. 1. Wool from Sheep. The farmers remove wool from their sheep during Spring and Summer. The wool is grown back in winter season. Some sheep's wool is removed twice a year also!!! 2. Silk from Silkworms. Silkworms produce silk. Not by killing them but, by taking silk from their cocoons!!! In a few farms of Asia, Silkworms with the length of 3 inches. There are thousands in only one farm. They make a cocoon and after done in 2 to 3 weeks they turn into moth. And the cocoon is silk. 3. Leather from camels and horses. Here the animals are well fed in farms. Then they are killed and their skin is called leather. I hope you will do some research to get to know about skin of animals.

Have you ever thought where do the fruits and vegetables come from ??? They all come from our beautiful Nature . Nature is a beautiful place where we all live. Plants, Trees, Herbs, Shrubs, Fruits and Vegetables all grow in our beautiful nature. Water is a natural resource found in our nature. The nature’s greenery is the reason why we all are alive today. The greenery found in our nature also helps support life. The plants and trees (who are a part of this natural greenery) release a gas called oxygen that we all breathe. However, nature is harmful to us in many ways. 1. When a Volcano erupts When a Volcano erupts the lava spreads badly in the area. The lava is very hot and destructive.   2. When we eat Poisonous BERRIES If we eat poisonous berries, we can have a very serious health issue or either fall ill. 3. When we eat Poisonous MUSHROOMS If we eat poisonous mushrooms, we can have a very serious health issue or either fall ill. We can also die due to it. Anamita...

Do you watch cartoons? Mostly everyone watches cartoons including kids, adults, grand parents and, everyone loves watching them. Anyone watches cartoons to refresh their mind. My favourite cartoon series is Tom & Jerry. Tom is a greedy cat who loves troubling Jerry. Jerry is a tricky mouse who tricks Tom when he is troubling Jerry. Cartoon series have either verbal conversations or music or both. This has both – mainly music and little verbal conversations. I like Jerry because he is very kind and does not trick anyone without any reason. He only tricks Tom because Tom troubles him. I keep on laughing while watching this cartoon. From this cartoon we learn that we should not be greedy. If we be greedy, we will be tricked like Tom. If you would like to watch this cartoon, then click here . If watch this episode, you will keep laughing. I am sure this will become you favourite cartoon someday. -Sparsh

Do you like movies related to animals? Well, I do and let me tell you about one such movie which is my favorite movie – 101 Dalmatians.

The characters in this movie are Roger – a computer game writer, Anita – a fashion designer, Cruella De Vil – an insane woman, 2 dogs and 99 puppies who had white skin with black spots. Roger had an intelligent male dalmatian dog named Pongo. It used to do household chores like bringing milk from outside the door, switch on the computer, switch on the coffee brewing machine, waking Roger, etc. Anita used to work as a fashion designer in Cruella’s company called ‘Devil’. She had a female dalmatian dog named Perdita. One day Roger and Pongo were cycling back home, and Anita was playing with her dog Perdita. Perdita and Pongo saw each other and began liking each other and ...
