Lifter loader truck



New invention. Fork lift and conveyer belts are connected together in a truck to form a lifter loader truck. They have 2 switches with which we can choose what to operate and a lever is used to pull up.He used 2 wheels for the switches in centre and a small lever.He wants to use the conveyer belt for heavy objects and fork lift for lighter objects.

This machine he has constructed is made up of small lego parts( < 1 cm ). He gets himself engrossed in the lego basket,search for the components that he would require to bring out his ideas. Organizing the lego parts are the biggest challenge for me.                                                                                                                  


2013 parrakum rail project (Mass Rapid Transit System)

He was so excited on seeing the parrakum rail at Velachery while going to Hippocampus. He wanted to learn and know more about it. Here are the stages , he tried to create and play.Using papers and legos he tried first.Then he improvised his ideas....            
                              





Later he used planks to construct mono rails.Here you can see that mono rails and cable cars.






Airport near Sriharikota

Chirag is so passionate about Rockets and space shuttles ,inspired him to build an airport near rocket launching unit. The 2 units will be connected by mono rail train.He used wooden blocks to create the mono rail. Thermo col for airport. He wants to launch Pslv 100 with mangalyaan satellite to mercury.


Entire set up.


The rocket launching pad and mono rail station that connects to airport.







Airport with control tower. The propeller airplane is designed by him. He doesn't like to do the same from books ,rather think of his own and feels good to see his own creation.





Children are a wonderful gift . . . They have an extraordinary capacity to see into the heart of things .I love to be with kids and enjoy their each and every moment.Every child is unique and have great talents. As parents we need to find what our child is all about and give way for them,no matter what difficulties you face. I always admire and believe Kahlil Gibran's words about children. 
On Children
 Kahlil Gibran
Your children are not your children.
They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself.
They come through you but not from you,
And though they are with you yet they belong not to you.
You may give them your love but not your thoughts,
For they have their own thoughts.
You may house their bodies but not their souls,
For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow,
which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams.
You may strive to be like them,
but seek not to make them like you.
For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday.
You are the bows from which your children
as living arrows are sent forth.
The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite,
and He bends you with His might
that His arrows may go swift and far.
Let your bending in the archer's hand be for gladness;
For even as He loves the arrow that flies, 

Me and my Husband started our life with a note from Kahlil's poem on marriage .This inspired me into reading his other poems too and now am a big fan of him.

We Named our ladoo as Chirag meaning light, ray of light in our life.The light that brightens up our life. We love him and learnt a lot about life along with him.

He used to amaze us with his questions, innocent smiles, creative ideas ,silly behaviour and humour. As any other mom in the world I too take pride in my little boy.

His visual spatial intelligence was always on higher side that ,he started creating models rite from his first birthday. He love to play and notice each and every detail that is around him. A normal 5 min walk would take 30 minutes walk for him as he would sit and absorb each and every little thing on those days.
Daily he would create new new things with the available resource (chair,stool,kitchen item etc etc ). 
Thanks to legos these days.He would sit for hours to build a city,and his own story . For the past 3 years i wanted to create a blog but now the time has come to kick start. 
His recent creation, loading truck with 2 steering wheels , and a Body scanner cum germ detector cum germ cleaner machine.
People have to pass through the body scanner (yellow door), then to germ detector (white sloppy platform) which will detect whether you carry any harmful germs and if you have germs the germ cleaner will remove it (black pulley with yellow hook) :-).
