Ways to make your child's first camp memorable “Camping” is just another word for fun.Well, at least for kids! Most kids are excited about their first camp and have every reason to be. Camping can give a kid some real life-changing experiences. If you are going on your first family camp, here are a few things that you can do to make it memorable: 1. Choosing the right camp for your child is the first step in making the experience memorable for him or her. Sobefore making any decisions, sit down with your child and ask him/her what he/she would like to do during the vacations. List the options in front of your child and then let him/her choose. Do not force them into doing anything they don’t like. Memories are made while doing something you love and that’s what your child should do. 2. Have a theme dinner night during the camp. Dinner at home with the whole family is always great, but a fun theme dinner in the outdoors is a unique bonding experience! 3. Keep a track of all the items you are packing and label them. After all, you don’t want your kid to lose his favourites on a camp. 4. Carry mosquito repellents with you- you never know whether the camping site is safe from these menacing insects. Carry outdoor repellents like Goodknight Fabric Roll-On and Goodknight Patches. Just apply 4 dots of the Fabric Roll-On on your child’s clothes and in case of the Patches, simply stick them onto the back of your child’s T-shirt so that he/she doesn’t take them off. Both these are 100% natural and pediatrician certified. The best part is that these repellents need to be applied on your child’s clothes and/or prams, cots and strollers, eliminating any contact with the skin. These revolutionary products ensure that your kid gets all-round protection from mosquitoes outdoors for up to 8 hours. 4. Get your kids involved right away by letting them help set up camp. They can help establish areas for cooking, cleaning, tents and garbage, or complete tasks like setting up their tent. It’s all a part of the experience and a great way to pass on skills onto the next generation. 5. Telling stories around a campfire might be a cliché, but it’s a great time to share family memories of camping during the past years or your own childhood. One day, your kid might be reliving the experiences with his or her own family, continuing the tradition. Follow these tips and your kid will have an amazing first camp!

"Salman Is A Darling...": Puneet Issar

Salubrious Virginity

Coquettish rain
Making love to
Salubrious virginity,
Tea leaves
Brewing merrily,
Many a cups
Are not enough
To satiate
The thirst
For warm creativity.

Tree leaves
Near my window,
Are like the
Serene Violins
Teased by the
Rainy austerity
Of woodwinds.

The Air Conditioner
Is finally off,
The sweat has
drizzled away
With cloud's tears
In copious rivulets.

There's a new reason
To celebrate life,
There should always
Be an excuse
To celebrate life
And just have some fun.

Which Actress Will Be On Top In 2010?

The Race for the top slot amongst actresses is heating up especially in the year 2010 as all top actresses are having some very interesting projects which are both commercially and critically viable.

Priyanka Chopra may have stumbled with Pyaar Impossible but she is having the hugely anticipated Vishal Bharadwaj film Saat Khoon Maaf, then there’s Siddharth Anand's Anjaana Anjaani with Ranbir Kapoor followed by Kites director Anurag Basu’s Silence starring Ranbir once again.

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is back with a bang. Mani Ratnam’s Raavan looks very impressive. Then there’s Shankar’s Robot opposite Rajnikanth, Vipul Shah’s Action Replayy with Akshay Kumar and the biggie Guzaarish where she is paired with Hrithik while Sanjay Leela Bhansali directs her again after Devdas.

Kareena Kapoor is hugely in demand. Much delayed Milenge Milenge will rekindle Jab We Met chemistry with old flame Shahid, Golmaal 3 with Rohit Shetty is a hot project, Ra.1 with the king himself Shahrukh Khan, Stepmom Remake with Kajol is a Dharma Production that’s keenly anticipated, Agent Vinod is all set to start shortly where she is paired with Saif while hopefully Madhur Bhandarkar’s film will be green-lighted soon as well.

Katrina Kaif is making waves for her de-glam role in Raajneeti where her chemistry with Ranbir will be closely watched. Zoya Akhtar’s Zindagi Milegi Na Dobara will have her doing her first film with Hrithik and then Farah Khan’s Tees Maar Khan is said to be a Christmas dhamaaka.

My Name Is Khan has given a solid start to Kajol this year. She also has Stepmom Remake that will surely create waves. Apart from these big stars there’s Deepika Padukone who started the year on a false note with Karthik Calling Karthik, redeemed somewhat by Housefull but she has Lafangey Parindey with Neil Nitin Mukesh directed by Pradip Sarkar and Break Ke Baad opposite Imran Khan so there’s still hope for her.

So amongst these actresses whom do you think has a good chance of emerging on top? Do let me know your choices……

My impressions about Abhishek Bachchan

Its my first post and I'm pretty much blank. Well, the idea of blogging has earned a lot of acclaim especially because of all the celebrities getting naughty in the bloggers paradise. Notable that comes to my mind is Aamir Khan's Dog Blog...a swipe at friend-foe Shahrukh Khan and Amitabh Bachchan's battle against the media and 'friends' like Shatrughan Sinha.

What can one write that may be of consumption for unseen, unheard of people. Don't know but yes, for me it is a means of reaching out to a wide section of people and getting their reactions on my writing. It can be about movies (Since that's my profession...no I'm no filmi actor types...I'm a fence sitter commenting on films and film makers and enjoying it to the hilt)...it can be about literature or art (poetry runs in my blood you see...if I tell you about it...you shall gasp...well about that later), current affairs, journalism, sports or maybe just listen in to comments from other people and soak it.

Let me start off by a recent experience of doing a video interview with Abhishek Bachchan. Well, this was my third interview with him in the last six months and AB was as usual jovial, funny and down to earth. He is confident of his next release 'Delhi 6' and didn't mind the tough questions about the similarity in the story idea or the fact that there seem to be some abstract notions in the film. We talked about the unpredictable audience that doesn't support a good film like 'Luck By Chance' and settles in for a half baked horror flick 'Raaz...the mystery...whatever'. He also shared his penchant for AB dance that one gets to see in 'Genda Phool'...music by the way is a big plus point of 'Delhi 6'.

Bachchan Junior also shared thoughts about how no one at one point of time wished to work with him. we also spoke about wife Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and how he is proving to be a forward thinking husband supporting his successful wife. Incidentally Abhi-Ash are working on several films together. Apart from Mani Ratham's 'Raavan', Excel Film's untitled to be directed by 'Delhi Belly' director Abhinay Deo there's Rajeev Menon's film loosely inspired by 'Abhimaan'. Now parents Jaya and Amit ji made that film a classic. A unique take on the insecurities and fragle ego of a husband who felt he was being outshone by his wife. Hrishikesh Mukherji's direction was timeless. The film is relevant today and forever. Lets see what talented Rajeev Menon makes of it....

I think that's it for my first post....do let me know what you guys think of it. Till later...cheers!
