International Cat Day

Happy International Cat Day!

Hey readers,

Today is International Cat Day! This day was created to celebrate the friendship we share with cats and to raise awareness for our feline friends. It’s the perfect day to learn about ways to help and protect them.

Here are some fun facts about cats to get your day started:

  • Cats are one of the most popular pet in the world.
  • Cats have whiskers on the back of their front legs.
  • Cats save energy by sleeping for 13 to 14 hours a day.
  • Cats are the only mammals that can’t taste sweetness.
  • Cats have powerful night vision, excellent hearing and an amazing sense of smell.
  • A group of cats is called a clowder, a male cat is called a tom, a female cat is called a molly and young cats are called kittens.

Trying to find ways to celebrate? How about these ideas:

  • Dress the part! Whether you’re spending International Cat Day at school or at home, show your love by wearing a pair of cat ears.
  • Take a catnap! Cats are experts in napping so take a page from their book and have a great nap.
  • Share a catty selfie! Let the whole world know how you feel by snapping a selfie with your cat and posting it on social media.

Do you have a cat of your own? Tell us their name in the comments below!

Happy International Cat Day!

The Wiggles

Meet The Wiggles!

Hi there!

Do you like dancing along with The Wiggles? We do! And we had a chance to meet Blue Wiggle Anthony and new Yellow Wiggle Tsehay and ask them some burning questions sent in by Chirp readers. Check out their answers!

What is the best part about being a Wiggle? – Matilda 

Anthony: You get to dress up every day in your favourite colour. And my favourite colour is blue! And I get to sing and dance and play songs for children.

Tsehay: I get to wear my favourite colour which is yellow. It matches my name, which means “the sun”. And I love to dance and sing with kids and have a great time.

Why are you called The Wiggles? – Lennon and Regan

Anthony: When we first made our music, we saw that young children kind of wiggled more than they danced. So we thought we’d make our name The Wiggles!

How do you come up with your songs? – Kayla and Emily

Anthony: When you write for children, you can choose from a whole world of ideas because children are so open and curious. We can write about fruit salad, yummy, yummy! Or we will write about a hot potato getting in the car, chug, chug!

Tsehay: The wiggles have different talents so it’s also about showcasing what each Wiggle can do. I love to dance!

Does Captain Feathersword actually live on a pirate ship? – Fallon

Anthony: He lives on land but he spends so much time on the SS Feathersword that when he comes off it he has sea legs! So he gets a bit wobbly sometimes.

Thanks so much to The Wiggles for answering our questions! And be sure to check out the Chirp blog later this month for a special Wiggles Concert Contest.

Until then, keep on dancing, everyone!

Happy Eid-ul-Fitr!

Hi readers,

Happy Eid-ul-Fitr! This holiday marks the end of Ramadan, a month where Muslims fast from sunrise to sunset, give to charity, and volunteer at local shelters or food banks.

Eid is a time to celebrate all the hard work done in Ramadan. Muslims dress up in their best clothes, give gifts, eat lots of yummy food, and spend time with their families.

Happy Eid to those celebrating!

Hey readers,

How to make:

Spring Book Review: Whirl by Deborah Kerbel

Hi Everyone,

Did you know that April is Earth Month? What a great time to get outdoors and explore nature!

If you’re looking for a good book to help celebrate the Earth this month, check out Whirl by Deborah Kerbel. It’s a fun story about a maple tree seed pod that gets picked up by the wind and goes on a wild adventure!

Here’s what Chirp reader Thelonious thought of this book:

“I liked it. The part where the kids pretend that the maple keys are eyebrows and mustaches and walrus tusks was the funniest part. I like following the line of the maple keys with my finger when they fall. My favorite part was when the blue jay took the maple key! Other kids would maybe like it. I want to read it again!”

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, Thelonious!

To learn more about maple tree seed pods, check out the Science page in the April issue of Chirp magazine.

Happy reading!

  • Jackie

Happy Ramadan!

Hi readers,

If you are celebrating the start of Ramadan, we wish you a happy, healthy, and safe month!

Ramadan is a month where Muslims all around the world fast from sunrise to sunset. They give lots of charity and volunteer at local shelters or food banks and they also try to do as many good deeds as they can.

Have a great Ramadan, full of lots of yummy food (when you’re done fasting, of course!) and good memories!

Silly April Fool’s Day Pranks!

Hey readers!

Happy April Fools Day!

April Fools is such a fun day! You get to be silly, tell jokes, and do pranks that make people laugh. Try out some prank ideas below!

chickaDEE Magazine: April Fool's Pranks

1. Banana Phone:

Take the phone that’s in your house, and switch it with a banana. When the phone rings, and someone goes to answer it, they will not peel-ieve you did that!

2. The ‘Because’ Hop:

Every time someone says the word ‘because’ hop on one foot. When they ask why you’re hopping, just say: “because!”

3. Musical Conversation:

Whenever someone asks you a question, sing them back your answer in a silly tune.

Let us know if you tried any of our April Fools Day pranks in the comments below!

Happy pranking,

– Mariam, chickadeeblog@owlkids.com

Flying Fun

Hi readers,

Looking for something to do this week? Why not listen to a story about the history of women in aviation as told by author Tiffany Stone. This story, called Hi, Sky, was originally published in Chirp magazine and is full of flying fun! And guess what? Author Tiffany Stone’s dad used to be a pilot so she grew up around all kinds of airplanes and is very passionate about the history of flight. Thanks Tiffany, for sharing your story with us!

Happy Twosday!

Today’s date is pretty special. It’s February 22, 2022. Written in numbers, it is 22.02.2022. That’s a palindrome, meaning it reads the same forward and backward! It’s also Tuesday, which means you can use a pun to call it Twosday.

So when can we expect the next palindrome date? In February 3, 2030 (03.02.2030). See you in 8 years!

Book Review and Giveaway: Oscar Lives Next Door

Oscar lives next door review photo

Oscar Lives Next Door by Bonnie Farmer is a book inspired by the life and childhood of jazz pianist Oscar Peterson. Young Oscar loved playing the trumpet but when he got sick he was no longer to play and so he started on the piano instead. And then he went on to be a world-famous musician.
Chirp readers Matilda and Maisy read this book together. Let’s hear what they had to say about it!
“I liked the story but I was kind of sad when Oscar got sick. It was nice that his friend Millie dropped off letters for him while he was getting better. I want to hear the kind of music that Oscar plays.” Matilda, age 4
“I really liked this book. My favourite thing about it is that even though Oscar couldn’t play his favourite instrument anymore, he practises his second favourite instrument a lot and gets really good at that one. He didn’t give up! I really liked the illustrations too. I would recommend this book for sure.” Maisy, age 7
Thank you for the review, Matilda and Maisy!
For a chance to WIN a copy of Oscar Lives Next Door, comment on this post with your first name, age, and list your favourite instrument. Prizes courtesy of Owlkids.
Contest Deadline: February 15, 2022. Click here for full contest rules and regs.
Good luck, everyone, and happy reading! – Jackie

Happy Lunar New Year!

 

Today marks the first day of the Lunar New Year and many families around the world are celebrating with big meals and fun activities.

And according to Chinese astrology, 2022 is the year of the TIGER! In China, the tiger is known as the king of beasts. It is a symbol of strength and courage. Do you share any of the tiger’s traits? If you do, it could be a very good year for you!

Happy new year, everyone!

Lunar New Year

Book Review: Friends are Friends, Forever

Today is the first day of Lunar New Year. This holiday is celebrated in parts of East and Southeast Asia and each country has its own traditions. Today we have a Lunar New Year book review from Tegan, 8. She read Friends are Friends, Forever by Dane Liu and illustrated by Lynn Scurfield. Here’s what she thought!

 

This story is about friendship. Two best friends named Dandan and Yueyue celebrate Lunar New Year together for the last time in China because Dandan is moving to a new country. They are both sad. They make a snowflake craft with red paper and string and put it outside to freeze. Then they hang up their snowflakes outside on a tree. It’s very pretty. Yueyue gives Dandan a spool of string and red paper to take with her. At her new school, Dandan doesn’t feel like she fits in. But one day she meets Christina and they become friends. Dandan shows her how to make a snowflake, too. Friends are forever because they make good memories. I liked this story because the book inspired me to do the snowflake craft just like Dandan. I would like to tell my friends how to make the craft, too. 

Tegan with her red snowflake craft from the book Friends are Friends, Forever. 

Thanks for the review, Tegan! Look for this heartwarming story in a local bookstore or library. Do you celebrate Lunar New Year? Tell us in the comments!

A Snowy Story

 

Hi readers,

Is it cold and snowy where you live? It is where I live and today feels like the perfect day to listen to a story about the joys of tobogganing. It’s called The Tobogganogganoggan and it was written by Emil Sher.

Click on the play button to hear this silly story read aloud by the author.

Celebrate Tamil Heritage

Hi readers!

Did you know that January is Tamil Heritage Month? There are about 200,000 Tamil people living in Canada and this month is a great time to appreciate and honour Tamil achievements and traditions.

January marks the Tamil holiday of Pongal, a four-day harvest festival, that is celebrated with food, new clothing, house decorating and cleaning, and prayers to the Sun. Pongal also makes the beginning of the new month called Thai, which is considered to be a very special month. It is a very important holiday so families gather to share their joy and show appreciation for the harvest. Here are some activities kids often do to celebrate. Which activity would you like to do?

  • Pick out new outfits and then clean out closets and donate old clothing
  • Visit a farmer’s market and learn about farming
  • Help decorate the house with kolam, a traditional piece of art drawn with rice flour or chalk
  • Help cook special meals
  • Give gifts of sugarcane and sesame snacks to friends and family
  • Fly colourful kites

Have fun, everyone!

— Jackie

Hi readers,

Chickadee reader Sapphire (age 8) sent us this awesome drawing of a Snowshoe Hare through the seasons!

As illustrated by Sapphire, the Snowshoe Hare’s fur is brown in the summer, and then turns white in the winter.  The Snowshoe Hare gets its name because of the large size of its hind feet!

Play the Dreidel Game

Happy Chanukah!

Happy Hanukkah to all who celebrate! Today is the last day of Hanukkah, the Jewish “festival of lights” that is celebrated for eight days with menorah lighting, special prayers and fried foods. Kids also play the dreidel game. In the December issue, we described how the dreidel game is played. Here are detailed instructions for the dreidel game, with help from Chickadee readers Naomi, 11, and Isaac, 8.

You’ll need:

  • 2 or more players
  • a dreidel: the four sides are Nun (נ), Gimmel (ג), Hey (ה), Shin (ש)
  • gelt: You can use a few things as these tokens: small toys, counters, or even smaller dreidels.

The rules: Each player begins with the same number of tokens and places one token into the pot (the middle). On your turn, you spin the dreidel. If it lands on Gimmel, you take everything in the pot. Hey means you take half the pot (rounded down if it is uneven). Nun means nothing happens. Shin means you put one token into the pot. Once your turn is over, it moves to the next person. Whenever the pot is empty, each player puts one token back into the pot. The game ends when one player has all the tokens and wins.

Thanks for sharing, Naomi and Isaac!

– The Chickadee Team

Book Review + Giveaway: Chaiwala!

Hey readers,

Join a young girl and her mom as they get a cup of chai! While they wait for their cup of milky spiced tea, you’ll learn about all the sights, sounds, and smells of the Chaiwala’s cart. Treat your nose to aromas of ginger, cardamom, cloves, and cinnamon sticks while you listen to tea leaves rustling and milk bubbling. With a biscuit or cake rusk, it’s time to enjoy!

We asked Hazel, 5, to tell us what she thought about the book. Check out her review below!

“This book is about mom and a daughter getting chai. The chai looks tasty, like hot chocolate. I liked that it used cinnamon because cinnamon is good with tea. I would like to visit a chaiwala. I would like to try this type of drink.”

Thanks for the review, Hazel!

For a chance to WIN 1 of 2 copies of Chaiwala!, comment below your age, name, and favourite drink to sip on!

Contest deadline: December 4 @ 11:59 p.m.

Prizes courtesy of Owlkids Books.

For full contest rules and regulations click here.

Good luck, everyone!
