The Story of the Sparkler Stick and How it Helped to Give Birth to a Baby Plant (includes a character called Bird Legz) and a video.

On Saturday, when I saw the sparkler sticks that we had used on Diwali, they were lying on the ground. So I thought I could make something out of them. So I got some water and scraped of all the black stuff left with a leaf that smelt nice. I was only using gardening materials for this so I used a leaf. Then I washed the sparkler stick several times. Then I bent the metal stick and made it into a upside down U shape. Then I curved the ends a bit. But then everything didn't turn out that good. So the next day I had an idea. I got a plastic plant pot. I called my sister to help and I knew it would turn out good this time because "Team work does your Dream work".Then she found a stick that looked like a dead bird's leg so we decided to name it Bird Legz. Then I found a shovel and started digging somewhere in the garden. I got as much as soil I could get from there and gave it to my sister so she could put it in the plastic plant pot. Then she put water in the soil and squashed it in using Bird Legz's foot. That kept going till I thought that was enough soil. Then we saw some worms in there which was good. Then I plucked some twigs of a flower plant I had, and put them in the plastic pot. Then I watered it and got the sparkler stick that I had bent. Then I tied it around the pot to make a handle.  Then I hung it on a nail which was somewhere on a mini house in front of our house. It looked pretty good. And what about the holes in the garden? Oh well, I planted the same type of plant in there...

Then I made a video... you guessed it.. on Canva. It was about How to Sa...wait should I tell you... Maybe let's keep it a surprise! The video is down below👇. Watch it to see what it is about.

Cake Again but it's Different!

 Yesterday, my dad made a cake. Well, it wasn't really a cake because he made two! They looked really delicious. I get hungry just by looking at them. 😋😋😋😋 I didn't taste the cakes because the were meant for today. 

Mandarin Juice

 It is weird for me since it is mandarin juice instead of orange juice but in lockdown we actually made it. So why did my family make it? It was because we have a mandarin tree. In lockdown there were so many mandarins on it and we had no idea what to do with them. The second reason was that we wanted to have some orange juice but we couldn't go out shopping in lockdown because it was dangerous. The third reason was because we wanted to experiment it and see how it would taste like. Me and my sister were the taste testers. We had a little sip and it tasted a bit sour. We liked it because most of my family likes sour things. We made it three times but it wasn't really sour because our mandarins were a bit sweeter than last time. We didn't add sugar or anything else. It was just natural.Have you done any cooking during lockdown? If you have, did you like it? Tell me in the comments.

Art Is Fun!

On the weekend, I made a paper boat after watching a video of how to make one. I decided to decorate it. I drew patterns on it and it looked good! Then I watched a clip of how to draw a butterfly and drew  one. Then my mum coloured it in for me and helped me put glitter on it. I also made a rocket out of paper rolls. Then I made two puppets  out of old, little socks. I also watched a video for that. Meanwhile, my sister was making a pencil holder out of paper rolls with my dad for help with the printing and the hot glue gun. Then my dad helped me by sticking the eyes, hair and a bow on my puppet. I also made a building out of toothpicks. My whole  family helped, so we also spent family time while doing art. Here are some photos.
