Exam time creativity

Exams are on, and school is closing early... More time on our hands means more boredom........and even though Samhith has exams this time, I can't really make him study too hard... he knows what he has learnt through the year, and last minute cramming isn't going to make a difference. Even his teacher is very clear - all he needs to do is improve his handwriting, she says...... after all, it is she who has to go through his answers!!!! Of course, exam time isn't the best time to practice ones handwriting, so he is practically free the whole day, and gets on my nerves. His eyes have been itching for a couple of days now, so he is banned from the TV. All that leaves him are his books and his blocks...... He did manage to read a couple of books, but I despair of him ever becoming a bookworm like me.... The only thing that has managed to keep him in one place are his blocks, and he has come out with some wonderful creations. Here are some of them....


This one started out as a temple, and then he decided to show the interiors.... and this was the result...


This one is also a temple.... his fascination with temples is understandable, especially since we visit temples most of the time, also since he loves stories related to them....


Did you see the cricket set leaning against the temple wall? Those are part of an eraser set which came with the Moov Ointment..... these are part of the Rajasthan Royals memorabilia...... These IPL chaps are crazy, but smart... they are targeting kids really early!

No guesses for this one..... temple again....


And this one, his masterpiece - is a house..... his next favourite topic..... considering that he wants more space for himself, you can just get an idea of the size of the house he dreams of!

    @Jayasree: thanks a lot..... he has been encouraged by the response.....

    @Chitra: sorry, no idea what happened the first time..... thanks for the comment...he is absolutely thrilled.... there was a phase when he used to make a lot of puzzles, but now, it seems to have passed by....
