Ye Ye Pawsa ..............this first story is about the sea and the earth and Himalaya and the sun and wind and mountains, and how with the wise advice of Himalaya, they all manage to set up a system under which rains are brought to the earth.

Bheem and Ghatotkach .............the story of the mighty son and his mightier father, who is the son's hero. In a fight the son is defeated. He becomes anxious to know the secret of his father's superior strengh. He had followed every routine of his father to get that superior strengh. But he had missed something. What? Find out.

Sapache Swatantya............... There is a tiny snake fond of roaming. His mother allows him to go on a journey around the world. The snake is also fond of milk. Everyone, whom he approaches for milk wants to bind him in payment. The snake cherishes his freedom more than anything else, so he refuses. Finally he becomes friendly with a kid who asks only for his friendship in return of the milk. Can we learn something from them?

Shekhchilli chi Gay ................. Our hero Shekhchilli is a well meaning honest person, but a bit lazy and a lot talkative. Also, dreaming ! So once, while working in an orchard as a night watchman, he dreams that a cow from heaven has visited his garden and feasted there, and in turn, taken him around the garden of heaven. Shekhchilli is so carried away by the dream that he even offers his employer and villagers a trip to heaven's garden alongwith him. Imagine the fiasko that must ensue.

Navacha Padha .............. Have you noted the trick that can be played with the table of 9 ? All the numbers in the table follow a rule. The sum of all the digits is always 9. This song describes the trick. You can sing it in school, picnic, railway journey and in any Indian language, if you are a bit of poet.
