Spring blooms as you see,
We all say "Hoo hoo hee!".
Everyone goes out to play,
Every single, single day.
Winter runs down the street,
We have friends that we can meet.
Come join in with us too,
We have fun things planned for you.
We play games, oh so fun,
We go out, and jump and run.
Spring is happy, winter is sad.
Now I hope, you aren't so mad.
Goodbye skating and skiing,
Welcome soccer and swimming.
More fun stuff on the way,
Lots of joy everyday.

My Baby Brother
Once upon a time, there was a girl named Anvitha. She really wanted a cute little baby brother to play and have fun with. "Mom", said Anvitha, "Can I please have a brother with shiny, soft hair?". "Sure", said mother with a smile on her face, "what do you want to name him?". "I want to name him Pranav", said Anvitha. "When are you going to the hospital?" she asked. "I will go tomorrow", said mother. "Who will be with me?" asked Anvitha. "Grandma will be with you", said mom.
Anvitha slept that night thinking about the little brother and how she can play with him. Mother went to the hospital at 5.15 the next morning. After my brother was born, mother had to stay in the hospital for a few days. I was very excited to see my brother with thick hair and cute little feet and hands. He looked exactly like me. But he was too small to play with. Soon, baby and mom were home. He started growing very fast. And soon, he became very playful and naughty.
At last, Anvitha said with a smile "I Love Pranav".

March Comes In Like a Lion And Goes Out Like a Lamb
Do you know what the saying "March comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb" means? If you don't, I will tell you.
Lions are rough and fierce. And so is winter.
When it is March, it is still winter. As it begins, it is snowy, slushy, rainy, wet and freezing. The temperature is about 20 degrees F to 40 degrees F. Do you like it or not? I dont't. Remember it is like a lion.
Towards the middle, it is almost spring. Soon, it is March 20th. "Yippee!!". It is getting warmer. I start to like it. Now the temperature is in the middle of 40 degrees F and 60 degrees F. Remember, it is now more like a lamb because it is very mild and soft.
Do you know what the exciting part is? It will be summer soon. We will be all joyful. Won't you? I will. Now, we can enjoy swimming, summer sports and other favorite hobbies. I hope you all have some fun over vacation.

The Easter PlayDate
One fine day, Julee just woke up. It is almost April and spring is in the air. Julee got out of her bed and looked at her calendar. “It’s Easter!” shouted Julee. She was so excited. She went to her mother’s room and whispered, “Mom, today is Easter!”. “Okay, Okay”, said Mother, in a sleepy voice. “Did you hide the Easter eggs?” asked Julee. “Oops, I forgot!”, said Mother. “What???” yelled Julee. “Ssshhh!” whispered her mother. But by that time her little brother, Dan, woke up. “Waaaa, Waaaa” cried Dan. “See??” shouted the mother. “Sorry mom!”, said Julee.
Then the kids brushed, ate their cereal and took bath. They started doing an Easter word search. “Kids, come down, the Easter eggs are ready!” called their mother from downstairs. “It’s time to work together, Dan” said Julee. They ran downstairs and began hunting for the eggs. They searched the living room, family room and finally found the first one in the book shelf in the library, the second one under the dining table and the third one in the kitchen pantry. They found some more in their backyard. They put all their eggs in the Easter baskets, which had “Happy Easter Dan and Julee!” written on them.
That afternoon, Dan and Julee had a play date with their friend, Kate, who lives next door. Their mother packed some Easter presents for Kate and her pet parrot named Singo. After they played for a while, they exchanged gifts and talked about their Easter egg hunt. They talked about how much fun it is to hunt for Easter eggs every year. Then they had yummy blueberries and whipped cream for snack. Kate loved the Webkinz that Julee gave her. They played with it for some time. Then they all played with the Monopoly that Kate gave Dan and Julee. Then Singo said hello to the kids. Everyone was amazed at how a parrot could talk. They shared some interesting facts that they learned in school about parrots.
They were having loads of excitement and fun. “Kate, can you please teach Dan and Julee how to play Pictureka?” said Kate’s mother. “Just a minute”, said Kate. She went upstairs to her room to find the game. She searched in her toy bin and found it at the very bottom of the bin. She brought it downstairs and then all of them were ready to start playing. Kate explained all the rules of the game and how to play. Towards the end of the game, Dan became cranky because he was too sleepy. He started making a mess by throwing away all the game cards around the room. His mother took him away and put him to bed. Kate and Julee resumed playing the game. “I love this game!” exclaimed Julee. Kate was winning so far. But after some time, Julee started playing well and she went into the lead.
The fun continued until it was time for both of them to go to their close buddy, Amy’s birthday party. They both got ready and headed to the party. “Welcome to my birthday party”, said Amy in a sweet voice. “Happy Birthday, Amy!” shouted Kate and Julee. All the kids had already gathered around the table for the cake cutting. The cake was strawberry shortcake and was decorated with pink flowers and hearts. It had peaches and strawberries on top. Amy cut the cake while everyone sang the birthday song. The kids ate pizza, cake and played “Musical Chairs”, “Tailing the Donkey” and “Limbo”. Then they tried to hit the Horse Piñata. Everyone collected candy, ate 2 pieces and thanked Amy for the wonderful party.
When Julee and Dan came home, their mother helped them take bath, and put on their pajamas. They were very tired after a full day of fun activities. They got onto their beds and said good night to each other and their mom, and slipped into their dreams. It was an awesome Easter day for both Julee and Dan.
