BIKE

What's big, gray, has two wheels, and goes "ding-ding"?
An elephant on a new bike :-).

Americans use their bicycles for less than one percent of all urban trips. Europeans bike in cities a lot more often—in Italy 5 percent of all trips are on bicycle, 30 percent in the Netherlands, and seven out of eight Dutch people over age 15 have a bike.
I guess we should use our bikes more.

Lets draw a bike.

• Start by writing two big Os. Put a dot in their middle.
• Write a V in between the two Os. Make the right arm a little longer.
• Write another V with its end tip at the left wheel and top tips joining big V.

• Write a small O as shown to make axle of the paddle. Join the tip of big V and the dot of front wheel with a long I.
• Make paddle by writing L.
• Write a horizontal I to divide big V into two. 

• Make seat with a thick small I. Finish wheels by writing a lot of Is.
• The handle of this bike can be made by writing a very flat U, you can also think of it as a bent I.
• Basket is optional. It can be made by writing the number 7.

Bike is ready!! I hope our young friends Raj and Yash will have lots of fun with their bike this weekend!!

Why did the lion chase the cyclist?
He heard that bikes are good for your health. :-)

CRUISE SHIP

Did you hear about the terrible accident? A red cruise ship collided with a purple cruise ship.
What happened?
All the passengers were marooned. :-)

For now, Freedom of the Seas is the largest luxury cruise ship in the world, owned by Royal Caribbean. It is approximately the same height as two of the Statue of Liberty, placed head to toe. It has a H2O Zone, or the “sprayground” which has colorful fiberglass sculptures shooting jets of water, geysers shooting from the ground and water cannons. There’s even a lazy river and waterfall inside this ship.
Lets draw a cruise ship.

• Write I on one end and a tilted I on the other end.
• Join their top tips with another I.
• Write a number of Os for windows. Base is ready.

• Now write a tilted I on the right end of this ship.
• Write half of T at the right end.Write a slanted I on top of half T.

• Write a number of long Is to make your ship bigger and more roomy.
• Write 11 right top . Join the tips with I and divide it in middle with another I.

• Write a number of Us to make water. Color and enjoy your vacation ship.

What did the water say to the cruise ship and it's passengers?
Nothing, it just waved. :-)

AMBULANCE 2

Name A Rule You Get To Break If You’re An Ambulance Driver.

Running Stop Signs :-).

Emergency ambulances are highly likely to be involved in hazardous situations, including incidents such as a road traffic collision , as these emergencies create people who are likely to be in need of treatment. They are required to gain access to patients as quickly as possible, and in many countries, are given dispensation from obeying certain traffic laws. For instance, they may be able to treat a red  traffic light or stop sign as a yield sign, or be permitted to break the speed limit.

Let us draw another ambulance.

• Start by writing a J.
• Write a tilted I on the left side.
• Start making wheels by writing  and an upside down U.

• Write L to make window.
• Make hood by writing J.
• Finish this window by joining edges with another L or J.
• Join the free edges of bottom with Is.

• Make the head light, rear light and signal with small Us.
• Write Os for wheels. Write small Os inside big Os to make rim of wheels.
• Start making plus sign by writing four Ls facing opposite directions.

• Depict active siren with Cs on either side of siren.
• You can make smoke by writing a lot of 3s together.

 Name another rule you get to break if you're an ambulance driver.
Through Intersections :-).

AMBULANCE

What do you call two people in an ambulance?

A pair of medics. :-)

The word ambulance comes from the Latin word ambulare, meaning to walk or move about which is a reference to early medical care where patients were moved by lifting or wheeling. The word originally meant a moving hospital, which follows an army in its movements.

Let us draw an ambulance

• Write an upside down U one side of U longer than the other side. Write another small U inside the first one. Write two Is, one on either side. Note the length of each I and the distance of I from sides of U.
• Write a horizontal I joining the tip of right I to the top of U.
• Write 11 inside this to start making the windshield.

• Join the tips of 11 with I.
• Join the top end of left I with the top end of left I.

• Now we make wheels. Write 5 and an upside down U. Join the free edges with I.
• Write O to make the wheels. Write small Os inside the big O to make rim.
• Write two Us one inside other to make the third wheel.

• You can make the fourth wheel by writing very flat Us. Make headlights with small Os  and the siren with upside down U.
• Write a plus sign in the body of ambulance .
• Write Cs and Is to depict an active siren.

Ambulance is ready !!

Operator, operator, call me an ambulance!!!
Okay, sir, you're an ambulance! :-)

CAR2

What would the U.S. be called if everyone in it lived in their cars?
An in-car-nation! :-)

No one knows how many cars there are in America. Many are not registered and are stored, in salvage yards, and some just sitting idle. But, there are approximately 250 million registered vehicles on the road today. That figure includes all types of vehicles.

Lets draw another car. a front view this time.

• Start by writing a flat upside down U. Join the edges with I
• Write a small U inside this flat U and then an upside down U on top of this flat U.
• Top the windshield with another U.

• Make tires with two more Us and then to make lights we write another set of Us.
• For the steering wheel we write half of O and then a small V inside it.
• Write two Is to finish making the hood of the car.

Beep Beep!! we are done now.

What would the U.S. be called if everyone in it drove pink cars?
A pink car-nation! :-)

CAR

Police Officer: Why are you driving in a bathing suit?
Motorist: I'm in a car pool. :-)

According to some French inventor Nicolas-Joseph Cugnot built the world's first automobile. In 1769, he invented self-propelled , steam vehicle that could travel only 2.5 miles per hour.While others had already built automobiles, Ford made a car with a simple engine that people could afford. Making his first Model-T in 1909, he sold about 11,000 of them in one year.
Let us draw a simple car here.

• Start with upside down U.
• Then write 5 and another upside down U as shown in next figure.
• Write J at the free tip of U.

• Start making window by writing another upside down U and joining the free edges with I.
• Write I to divide the big window and then make tires with Os.

 

• Make front light with a small U. Color and our car is ready to hit the road.

By the way which part of the car is always tired?
Tires ,Of Course !!

Leprechaun

Why can't you borrow money from a leprechaun?

Because they're always a little short. :-)

As per the folklore, the Leprechauns spend all their time busily making shoes, and store away all their coins in a hidden pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. If ever captured by a human, the Leprechaun has the magical power to grant three wishes in exchange for their release.

Let us draw a leprechaun.

• Write 11 and then draw two rectangles in the middle one inside the other.
• Write Is as shown in figure two to make the hat.
• Start making ears by writing C in each side.

• Join free ends of C with U.
• Write one I and then another one that is tilted towards right.
• Make tummy by writing J.

• Make the hands by writing J on each side.
• Start making legs by writing an upside down V at the middle of tummy.
• Write 1 on either side of V.
• Join the tips of V and I with I.
• Write a big L and a small L as shown in the next picture to make the boots.

• Write small upside down Us on each boot.
• Join the tip of I and the end of L with V.
• Finish face with two dots for eyes and U for the smile.

We are done.

Why did the leprechaun stand on the potato?

 To keep from falling in the stew! :-)
