My name is Pujan. My parents gave me a bicycle on my
birthday. I was very happy. But the very next day I was very sad.
Do you know why? My parents had asked me to learn riding
bicycle #rst from my elder
brother. I thought it wasn’t
necessary. I was excited
getting a new cycle. I
took it out to ride without
informing anyone. I went
a bit far from my house so
that no one could see me.
I invited my friends too.
None of us knew how to
ride a bicycle. I couldn’t balance myself and fell off. I badly hurt
my leg. I couldn’t move a bit.
I started crying and yelling.
My friends were helpless.
They didn’t know what to do.
Then I saw my elder brother
running towards me. He was
angry to #nd me badly injured
and to see my bicycle broken.
I was immediately taken to a
Note to the teacher: Let students understand that different things have different uses.
There are things used at home, school, classroom or elsewhere. We should know
about their proper uses. Make them realize that misuse of things may cause serious
accidents, injuries and losses. By knowing the right and proper use of things, we can
get maximum bene#ts and advantages from them.

doctor. One of my legs was broken and we had to plaster
it. It took almost a month to get well. I learnt a great lesson
from that accident. If I had listened to my parents and not
misused my new bicycle, my leg and bicycle would not have
broken. Now, I realize that we need to listen to our elders. We
shouldn’t misuse things. It’s important to learn to use things
properly. Carelessness can even take our life. I hope you also
learnt lessons from my mistake.
My name is Merry. One day, my parents bought a school bag
and a water bottle for me. I was very happy to get them. I was
curious to show them to my friends. Next day, I put my books,
copies and pencil box in the bag. I wanted to give surprise to
my friends that I had a new water bottle too. So, after #lling
water, I put the bottle inside my bag. My friends liked my new
school bag. I wanted to show them my new water bottle as
well. Can you guess what happened? The cap of the bottle
wasn’t tied properly and the water got spilled in the bag. All
books and copies were wet. What a fool I was? My friends
were laughing at me. Then I thought of my grandmother. She
was right to tell me that the bag was to keep only books,
copies and pencil box but
not a water bottle. But I
didn’t listen to her and as a
result I received by books
and copies. I did misuse
my new school bag. I
wished I had listened to my
grandmother. You know it
taught me a great lesson.
We should always listen
to our elders. A water-
#lled bottle should never
be carried in a bag. Things
shouldn’t be misused.

3Lesson Poor Ramu!
Objectives
At the end of this lesson, the students will be able to:
learn to make proper use of money.
understand the value of money.
Once upon a time, there was an old man. He had two
sons named Ramu and Sanu. He loved them very much. He was
worried about what it would happen to them after his death. So
Note to the teacher: Explain to students how money could be used effectively. Let them
know money earns money. It doesn’t grow itself on trees. One should know how to
make it grow. Encourage students to make proper use of their money. Understanding
the value of money right from early age is important
120 Social Studies & Creative Art Book 2
the old man called both of his sons. He gave a bagful of money
to each of them. He asked them to use the money to make
their life better and happier. Few days later, the old man died.
The sons pondered how they could use their money to make
their life better and happier. The eldest son, Ramu thought to
himself, “I have already a house to live in and food to eat. I have
everything that I need. So I shouldn’t use the money”. At the
same time, he was afraid that someone might steal his bag of
money. So, in the middle of the night, he went near a big tree
beside his house. He dug a pit under the tree. He buried his
bag of money in the pit. Then he thought his money was safe
and no one could steal it.
On the other hand, the youngest son, Sanu decided to
use his money. He bought some chickens. The chickens gave
him many eggs. He sold those eggs at the market and made a
lot of money. With that money, he bought some of goats. The
number of goats increased. He sold them at the market and
earned more money. Again he used the money to buy cows. He
sold milk and earned a lot. Sanu’s money went on increasing.
He made a nice house and lived happily with his family.
Ramu, the eldest brother soon became very jealous of
his brother, Sanu. He thought of earning more money and
building a bigger house than that of his brother. So one night,
he quietly went to the tree to dig out his bag of money. When
he dug where he had hidden his money he got shocked. To his
surprise, the bag was not there. Someone had already stolen
the money. Ramu became very sad. He blamed himself for not
using his money properly. He didn’t know how to make the
best use of his money. He treated it like a piece of stone or
wood. Poor Ramu!

parents, uncle and aunt
in my family. They’re
farmers. Today is
Saturday. It’s a special
day for all of us. I don’t
have to go to school.
There’s a local market
nearby. It opens only
on Saturday. That’s why
it’s called Shanibare
Haatbazaar. Most of
the villagers go there
to sell their products
and buy their needs for the whole week. I’m also going there
today with my parents.
Father: Sanu Maya, you’re also coming with us to market,
aren’t you? Get ready soon and ask your mother and aunt not
to forget to carry ghee, eggs, curd and pickles to the market.
I have already made the vegetables ready in the basket. We
must reach the Shanibare Haatbazaar in time to sell them.
Note to the teacher: Encourage students to use local goods and domestic goods as far
as possible. Tell them what advantages are there for the people and the country using
such goods.

Sanu Maya: Father, it’s very cold. We have to buy a woolen cap
and socks for grandfather and a woolen khasto for grandmother.
Can we buy them in the Haatbazaar?
Father: Of course, we can? All the goods sold in the Haatbazaar
are produced in our own village by the villagers. I’m selling
vegetables and your mother and aunt are selling ghee, curd,
gundruk and homemade pickles. Likewise people produce
different things in their home and bring them to sell in the
market. Such products are called local goods.
Sanu Maya: Father,
what’ll you buy in the
market after selling
vegetables?
Father: I need to buy
kuto, kodalo, hasia
and bamboos to make
shed for the cows.
Mother: I have to buy
doko, dalo and pitcher
to carry water.
Aunt: I also have
to buy nanglo and
mattress to dry
vegetables to make pickles.
Sanu Maya: Father, why do we need to buy local goods?
Father: We earn money by selling local goods. They are cheaper
and better. We need not go far to buy these things. This helps
to save money and time. We also help one another by selling
and buying local goods. We save money when we produce
things locally. I am also saving money so that one day my Sanu
Maya will become a doctor to help the villagers.

Mama: No, we don’t
have Sanu Maya. You live
in a village whereas I live
in a city. In village, people
make certain things in
their own home. In the
city, many things are
produced in factories and
industries. In these factories and industries, electricity is needed
to run machines. Many people work there. Things are produced
in a large quantity in factories within a short time. Once the
things are made or produced, it is written ‘Made in Nepal‘
on them. Such locally produced goods are called domestic
products. You can also check and #nd out for youself.
Sanu Maya: Yes mama hajur, it’s written 'made in Nepal' on
all the things you have brought for us. But why is it written like
this on every goods?
Mama: There are so many goods in the market. Some are made
in other countries and imported. So when we buy goods, we
have to see where they are produced/manufactured. It makes
easy to identify them while buying.
Sanu Maya: But why do we need to buy goods made in
Nepal?
Mama: Goods made in our own country are called domestic
goods. Domestic products are cheaper. As far as possible, we
should buy goods made in our own country. If we do that, our
money will remain in our own country. We can use that money
to build roads, schools, hospitals, factories and industries. Then,
many people can get jobs and earn money for their family. We
all should feel proud to buy things made in our own country. It
makes us self-dependent. And this is one of the ways how we
can help to develop our country.

5Lesson Paper Collage
What You'll Need:
• Scrap paper in three different colors
• White paper
• Scissors
• Ruler
• Black marker
• Glue
Directions:
Find three different-colored sheets
of construction paper, newspaper, or
magazine pages. Tear the papers into
small pieces and then organize them into
three piles.
Use the scissors to turn the rectangular sheet of white paper
into a square. Decide on three shapes for the collage. You can
use the ruler and marker to create the shapes.
Now start with the shape in the middle of the collage. Fill it in
with a light layer of glue. Now you can
select one color of torn paper to use for
#lling in the shape.
Once #nished with the #rst shape,
continue working on the next, following
the same steps but using a different color
of torn paper.
Use the last color of torn paper for #lling
in the #nal shape and, if there is white paper showing around the
edges, #ll with leftover pieces to #nish the torn paper collage.
After the glue has dried, #nd the perfect place for displaying
the #nished creation.
