Last year, my family and I went on a super cool trip to Pokhara. We took a night bus on a Friday and stayed there for four days.

On the first day, we visited places like David Fall, Bindabasini Temple, and Mahendra Gufa. After that, we ate at a place called Almonds and took a walk by the lakeside. We were so tired that we went to bed early.

The next day, we had breakfast at the hotel and went to Begnas Taal. We tried yummy thicheko aalu there. We also went to the Mountain Museum. My cousin and I even climbed the Machhapuchhre mountain. While we were busy, my mom, dad, and sister went paragliding. I was scared, so I stayed with my grandma. We had chow mein and ice cream while they were flying.

We also visited Chamero Gufa. The following day, we explored Pumdikot and Shanti Stupa. In the afternoon, we had a great time boating on Fewa Lake. On the last day, my elderly mom took us to a fun park near our hotel. We tried all the rides, including roller coasters. It was a bit scary but so much fun. We also had ice cream there.

As the day ended, we said goodbye to Pokhara and took a bus back to Kathmandu. It was an awesome trip.

एकादेशमा एउटा आँपकाे बगैँचा थियाे । आँप पाक्ने समय भएकाे हुनाले हाेला सबै आँपका रुखमा आँप लटरम्म पाकेका थिए । त्याे आँपकाे बगैँचा एउटा विद्यालयकाे नजिकै थियाे । विद्यालय छुट्टी भएपछि विद्यार्थी आँपघारीमा पसे । रुख चढ्न गाह्राे थियाे । रुख चढ्न नसकेपछि एउटा विद्यार्थीले भुइँबाट एउटा दाउराे टिपेर आए आँप गए झटाराे भन्दै रुखमा हान्याे । लठ्ठीले लागेर रुखकाे हाँगा भाँचियाे । अचानक रुखबाट राेएकाे आवाज आयाे । रुख बाेलेकाे सुनेर विद्यार्थीहरू छक्क परे । एकछिन त डराए पनि । विद्यार्थीले रुखसँग माफी मागे ।  विद्यार्थीले रुखसँग माफी मागेपछि आँपकाे रुख विद्यार्थीहरूदेखि खुसी भयाे। रुखले पाकेका आँप आफै भुइँमा झारिदियाे । विद्यार्थीहरू अत्यन्तै खुसी भए । सबैले आँप बाँडे र खुसी हुँदै खाए ।

Football is one of the best outdoor sports in the world.  Football is played by kicking the ball into the goalpost. It is played by eleven players in a team with two teams for each game. Each of the players pass the ball to one another and kick the ball towards the goalpost to get a goal. 

I love watching and playing football. I enjoy watching football games during the weekends on TV and the internet. I play football at school with my friends. 

Playing football makes me happy and this game can also help make the body and mind fit and active as it requires a lot of physical activity like running, paying attention to the other players etc. I like all the football players but Messi is my favourite. I like his way of playing, passing the ball and using strategies to score goals.

Vacation is a fixed holiday that people enjoy by playing at home, travelling, watching movies, etc. It can consist of a long holiday or even summer or winter breaks. It is fun to have a nice long vacation after months of studying or working. Vacation is important because it relieves all the stress of working or studying, and it is fun to hang out with your relatives. We can go to the beach and have a nice glass of coconut juice while getting some vitamin C from the sun. It gives a nice feeling in our body, and our mind will go away from all of the stress, and we will improve our mental health. We will be happy after a nice, long vacation. We can also stay at home and talk with our friends and eat ice cream if it is a really hot day. It is just like therapy without giving money, but if one single sad thing happens, the whole vacation is going to be ruined. So, vacation is not always good. Some people even work small jobs for the whole vacation, no matter if it is at a restaurant or a fast food place. So, the conclusion is that vacation is important because it gives us relaxation, it improves our creativity only if we practise some skills at home and it makes our mind free from stress.

एकादेशमा एउटा आँपको बगैँचा थियो । सबै रुखमा लटरम्म आप फल्थे । आँपको रुखमा चढ्न गाह्रो थियाे । एकदिन विद्यालय छुट्टी भएपछि केही विद्यार्थीहरू आँपधारीमा पसे । एउटा विद्यार्थीले आए आँप गए झटारो भनेर एउटा लठ्ठीले आँपकाे रुखमा प्रहार गर्याे । ल‌ठ्ठीले प्रहार गर्दा आँपको हाँगा भाँचियो । अचानक आँपको रुख रोएको आवाज आयो । आवाजमा रुखले गुनासो गरेको सुनियो । विद्यार्थीहरूले रुखसँग माफी मागे ।  रुखबाट आफैँ आँप भुइँमा झरे । विद्यार्थी खुसी भए । हामीले कहिल्यै नराम्राे काम गर्नुहुँदैन । जान अञ्जानमा गल्ती हुन पुगेमा माफी माग्नुपर्छ भन्ने शिक्षा हामीलाई यस कथाले दिएकाे छ ।

The first day of Magh is known as Maghe Sankranti. People put oil on their heads through their elders on this day. It is believed that putting oil helps take away all the cold from the body. People also eat different types of sweet balls known as ‘Laddu’ on this day. They are prepared using jaggery, ghee and different seeds like sesame, puffed rice etc. They also eat yam and sweet potatoes on this day. These foods help us generate heat on the body during the cold days of January. 

I went to my maternal uncle’s house to celebrate the festival and enjoyed a lot there. The best part of this festival is we can eat a lot of homemade sweets on this day.

Outdoor games are usually played outside and are important for growing children. There are many outdoor games, such as football, basketball, cricket, dodgeball, and baseball, that contribute to our health, social skills, and physical flexibility. Playing in a group adds an element of interest to these games, making them not only enjoyable but also beneficial for our overall well-being.

Engaging in outdoor games helps children become more socialised and disciplined. It encourages them to follow rules, promotes physical fitness, and contributes to the development of bones and muscles. Additionally, outdoor games enhance blood circulation, maintaining the health of our brains and bodies.

In my opinion, outdoor games are essential in our daily lives because they contribute to our physical fitness, boost self-confidence, and aid in overall well-being. Playing fair in a team or group setting is emphasised, fostering a sense of sportsmanship.

Also, playing outside games is super important for a child’s brain to grow and for them to become strong and smart. When they play outside, they learn to do things on their own and get the exercise their bodies need. So, playing outside games helps children in every way—it makes them strong, helps them make friends, and makes their brains work better.

It was the last day at school before the winter vacation. As soon as I reached home, I put my bag and ran out to play cricket with my friends. I played for a long time that day because I didn’t have to worry about submitting my homeworks the next day. I slept until 8o’clock in the morning throughout my vacation. I enjoyed my time at my maternal uncle’s home. I also had a lot of sweets and different types of laddus on Maghe Sakranti. I enjoyed basking in the sun and playing with my siblings. 

I enjoyed my winter vacation.

Stop on red, don't speed away

Parents, kids, and your loved ones,

Waiting for you at home,

Be careful and safe for them.

Parties and clubs may sound fun,

But rushing while driving isn't well done.

Take a moment, don't be in a hurry,

Keep your family from any worry,

Listen to the traffic rules,

Stay safe, don't play the fool.

When the light turns red, just halt.

For your family and yourself, it's not a difficult call.
