Happy New Year!

Hi kids!
Wish you all a very happy Tamil New Year!
Do you know the name of this year? It is 'Viya'. Know more about Tamil Calendar here. Mr Siddharthan from the University of Tennessee has explained the system well!
By the way, is this blog useful? I would like to have some feedback from you.

The amazing number of Summer camps in the city drives me crazy. What to include in this post and what not . . .
I thought it would be nice if I classify the camps according to the area, so that you kids can locate one near your home. But a cute litle friend of mine from Ashok Nagar says that she wants to go for a camp that interests her. . . not just the one nearer to home!

I am thinking of classifying them according to activities. . . like Music, Crafts, Yoga, etc.,

What do you say?

A Holiday with Books

I came across this nice corner for old and rare books.
Old Books Gallery and Lending Library
121, St. Mary's Road, Abhiramapuram, Chennai 28
It is at the junction, where St. Mary's Road meets C. P. Ramaswami Road.
The library has announced a lifetime student membership at Rs. 100
Call: 43536949
Hey kids! Utilise this opportunity. Visit the library and Vijayaraghavan, owner of the library will make you fall in love with books.
Meantime, keep visiting the Summer Camps - 2006 post. It is being updated regularly.
