Cheery-O Bubble Art Winter is a wonderful time. It is so fun to play in the snow, go ice skating, make snowmen and drink hot chocolate. But sometimes, the weather is too cold to play outside. Next time you find yourself looking for something to do inside, try creating some art! Creating pictures with bright colors can make a dreary, cold day a little more cheerful. Try making bubble art to have some fun. Materials that you will need: • CD that isn’t used anymore. • Black marker, crayon or pen • Crayons, colored pencils, colored markers • Drawing paper or any paper you have.
Cheery-O Bubbles!
Trace around the outside of a CD to make a circle.
Move the CD and trace again. Make sure not to draw through your first circle.
Using the small center circle of the CD, make smaller circles.
Make smaller circles on top of the larger circles you have drawn. Add small circles in the empty spaces too!
Directions: 1. Place a CD in the middle of your paper. 2. Trace around the outside of the CD to make a circle. 3. Move the CD slightly off the CD you have just drawn. 4. Trace around the CD for the second time making sure to not draw through your first circle. 5. Repeat this as many times as you like. To make your drawing interesting, make sure some of your circles go off the edges of your paper. 6. Using the small center circle of the CD, make smaller circles on top of the larger circles you have drawn. Add small circles in the empty spaces also. 7. Using bright cheerful colors, color your bubbles!

Loaches are mostly scavengers and omnivores. They will eat algae, detritus and anything else they find on the bottom. Their barbels help them search out food. Many loaches like to eat small worms and insects as well. Loaches come in all sizes, shapes and colors. Many are only a few inches long, but some can get quite big! Their shapes range from almost snake like, to very much like a long pyramid. Each type of loach has its own color pattern to help them blend in with their surroundings. This camouflage keeps them safe from predators. The names of loaches are just as unique as the fish themselves. There are clown loaches, dojo loaches... then there are horseface, skunk, kuhlii, yoyo, zebra, Bengal, hillstream, weather loaches and even more! Pollution can really harm these loaches, so it is important that we protect the ponds where they live.

The Western Gorilla has the VXE VSHFLHV :HVWHUQ /RZODQG *RULOOD DQG &URVV River Gorilla; while the Eastern Gorilla has the sub-species: Mountain Gorilla and Eastern Lowland Gorilla. The two species live in central Africa, separated by a vast swathe of rainforest. Gorillas are considered the largest primate! The biggest species of gorilla can weigh up to 450 pounds for males and 300 pounds for females. They are about 5’5â€? when standing upright. Gorillas use all of their limbs while they walk, a technique called “knuckle-walkingâ€?. Western subspecies look mostly grey, while the Eastern subspecies have a more black coat. Gorillas are herbivores, which means they only eat plants! A majority of the gorilla’s day is spent eating bamboo, leafy plants and sometimes small insects. It isn’t uncommon for a male gorilla to eat up to 40 pounds of food! Gorillas also can make and use tools to help them retrieve food. Mothers often only have one baby at a time, but some cases of twins have been documented. Mothers carry the baby gorilla against their chest for the ÂżUVW IHZ PRQWKV DIWHU WKH\ DUH ERUQ DQG WKHQ FDU-

You Don’t Have To Be An Athlete To Get Athlete’s Foot! Athlete’s Foot is a skin infection that is caused by a fungus called Tinea Pedis. This fungus is a plant-like microorganism that is very small. You can’t even see it with your eyes and anyone can get it. Your feet have a lot of old skin cells and this fungus eats it! Athlete’s Foot got it’s name because athletes often get it. It grows in warm, damp surfaces like public showers, locker rooms and pools. Walking barefoot on these surfaces can cause your feet to pick up the fungus. But just walking on these surfaces is not enough to cause the infection. The fungus likes it wet! It is important to dry your feet properly after swimming, showering or bathing. Don’t wear tight shoes when your feet are sweaty and do not wear the same pair of shoes or socks day after day. How do you know if you have it? You might have a rash that burns and itches. You may have bumps on your feet and they may be cracked, blistered or peeling most often between your toes. The skin between your toes may look cheesy and have an unpleasant odor. On the soles of your feet there can be redness and scaling. It can even spread to your toenails! A doctor that specializes in feet or skin such as a podiatrist or dermatologist can look at your feet and figure out if you have it. The doctor may swab off a skin sample on your foot to test for the fungus or bacteria. It won’t hurt - you have lots of layers of skin on your feet. For mild cases, treatment is simple. The doctor may have you apply a powder or cream that contains medicine that kills the fungus and your feet will
be better in a few days. Sometimes it takes longer for it to go away. Keep your feet dry and take your shoes off as much as you can because the fungus can’t grow in dry air. If it still doesn’t go away, the doctor may have to prescribe a stronger medicine. Something you swallow. If you get Athlete’s Foot, don’t put off telling your parents and going to the doctor because untreated, it will keep spreading and become harder to get rid of. Some ways to help prevent Athlete’s Foot: • Dry your feet thoroughly - especially between your toes. • Avoid wearing synthetic shoes or shoes that are too tight that don’t let your feet “breathe.” • Wear sandals or flip flops around pool areas, public showers and gyms to stay away from the fungus. • Wear cotton socks or socks that soak up wetness. • Change your socks each day. • Ask your parents to purchase anti-fungal powder to put in your shoes. • Spray your shoes with disinfectant and set them in the sun to dry to help kill the germs. • Don’t share towels or shoes. • Keep home bathroom surfaces clean - especially showers and tubs.
