Festival Season

Sanskriti Kohli Grade IV

Doesn't it feel good when the festival season is almost here? I love that feeling. Many of us love summer but some of us love winter that is also when all the festivals start. I love the festival season. India is a vast country with so many festivals. We have Navratras followed by Dushera then we have the very colorful 'karwa chauth' after that we have everyone's favorite 'DIWALI'.

On Diwali I decorate my house and burst crackers but this year I will not burst any crackers because I feel for my Earth. I will celebrate it by lighting my house and eating lots of sweets and chocolates. I would like to request that lets all pledge to have a very colorful, peaceful and a noiseless Diwali. Lets all say no to crackers. I wish everyone a very fun filled and a safe Diwali.

Planets Make Fun of Earth

All the planets were making fun of Earth. You know who started all of it? It was Uranus who started making fun of Earth. While Uranus was making fun, Earth became sadder and sadder and became hotter and hotter.

Uranus said, "Earth is a toilet" because he doesn't want to be called a 'stinky planet'. He wanted Earth to stink and not him.

Saturn made fun of Earth and said, "You can be me and I can be you. I don't want any rings. I am tired of them."

Jupiter made fun of Earth because he doesn't want to be heavy anymore. He actually wanted to be light like Saturn and float like Saturn. He wanted to have the ring power of Saturn.

Mars said, "I no longer want to have red sand. I want to have green sand like Earth."

Venus said, "I no more want to be the hottest planet. I want to be the coolest planet in the entire solar system."

Mercury said, "I no longer want to go fast. I want to go slower like other planets."

Neptune said, "I don't want to be cold and have pink snow." He told earth, "Can you be like me?" When Earth heard all of this she said, "You all are very bad friends. You are being mean to me. If you will be mean to me, I will be mean to you too!"

Then all the planets said sorry to Earth and promised not to be mean and bad and make anymore jokes about Earth. So, Earth forgave all of them. And all the planets went around the Sun happily after that.
