FLYING A KITE
Arlo and mom had a great time during Durham Parks and Recreation’s kite-flying event at the Holton Center on Saturday, April 2.

What do you do with a broken pencil?
Nothing—it’s pointless!
What’s wrong? Why can’t your pony sing?
Because she’s a little horse!
Which musical instrument can be found in just about any bathroom?
A tuba toothpaste!
There are so many new tall buildings in Durham. Which one do you think has the most stories?
The library!
What did the dalmation say right after he had dinner?
Whew, that really hit the spot!
SEE YOUR HOUSE!
Amaze your friends by showing their houses with just a few keystrokes. Go on the house below and then type in your street address in the search box. In a few seconds, you’ll see your house or building. If you then click on the Earth symbol at the top of the screen (near the middle), you’ll switch from Street mode to Map mode and you’ll see your house or building a map. Go back and forth from Map to Street mode and look around your neighborhood.
WONDEROPOLIS
If you’re the kind of person who likes to learn new things, go to Wonderopolis and look around.

SAMEGAME!
SameGame is really fun to play. Try to click and clear all of the balloons. Look over the board first and try to spot large blocks of color. For example, if you see a single red balloon that’s surrounded by different colors, don’t click on it! Look for balloons that are next to other balloons of the same color. The more balloons that you clear with each click, the higher your score will be—Good luck!
