CHILDREN SHOULD CHOOSE THEIR BEDTIME

-



Most children like to watch TV entertainments and these entertainments are showed mostly in the night. Some children are forced to sleep by their parents and are unable to watch these TV shows. Now we want our bedtime.

We need to contribute to night life. After a tremendous day it is important that we celebrate the day. This must include the children because we need to experience these interesting features of the night and study the importance of night life. After the night life, we can go back to sleep.

We children always enjoy our sleep and some of us like to sleep for a long time. Some parents wake their children by 5:00am in the morning. One disadvantage of early waking is that, when the children get to school, they start sleeping in class. For example, my dad wakes me by 5:00am and sometimes I sleep in class. At least we should be able to sleep for some time so we have rest after a long day.

Can’t we finish up our TV shows? I think yes, because if we choose our own bedtime it will be better. 90% of children would like to finish their TV shows. For example, missing a football match is very painful because, when I get to school, I look at my classmates while they talk about the football match.
We children, need our own bedtime!!

RECESS SHOULD BE EXTENDED TO ONE HOUR

“Yeah it’s time for recess!” shouted Jake and it was time to outside. The class perfect spent ten minutes arranging the line and she shouted “Oh come on, this break time is only thirty minutes!” She managed to arrange us and they went down stairs. When they got there, the Hummingbirds were already there and did not allow the us to play. By the time they finish playing, it was break over. We were sad. In my opinion, I believe break time should be extended to one hour.                My first point is, we need to make new friends and  we need more time to allow us to make new friends. Also, your cousin can be in the same school and you won’t even know, imagine that! I strongly believe we need more recess time.                  Next, it enables us to explore nature. We need more break time because exploring nature is good. You can see the plants around the school and learn from them. Also see creatures that people thought were extinct.                Finally, when we spend time a…

THE STRANGE ENCOUNTER

It was a boring afternoon with my sisters and I on the couch. Our parents had gone to work and weren’t coming home until tomorrow and there was nothing for us to do. The phones were down and the thunderstorm last night had smashed the Dstv dish.
Suddenly, Stella my younger sister came up with an idea! ‘‘Why don’t we go on an adventure into the valley’’ Without even thinking about it I concluded it was a good idea. We all sprang up from the couch and raced to our various rooms. I put on a yellow T-shirt with animal paw prints all over it. I got my adventure bag and packed all the resources I needed. When I got downstairs, I noticed my sisters had copied my outfit and even the adventure bag. Too excited to get mad I overlooked their ‘offence’ and shouted “LET’S GO!” We reached the valley, it was such an amazing sight that I couldn’t just believe it. The valley had deep holes with water which served as a pond for amphibians. As we ventured on, we saw exquisite things - there were rainbow-colo…
