One of my favourite things to do in my free time is snow skiing, and I have recently started snowboarding as well. Fortunately, there are about five ski resorts near my hometown, so there are plenty of places to ski. In order to ski, you need some basic equipment including snow skis, ski poles, ski boots, goggles, and some warm ski clothing. I purchased my equipment last year after the season was over when everything was on sale. Recently, I’ve decided to take up snowboarding, but it's taking a little time to get the hang of it. Snowboarding is becoming more and more popular now that itis an Olympic event.

HELPING MORTHER AT HOME

Every child should love his mother. A girl or boy learns’ many good things from mother. Mother teachers us to be obedient, helpful and friendly to others.

I have always helped my mother in the kitchen. I get up early in the morning and help my mother prepare breakfast. Then I clean the kitchen and sweep the floor.

On Sunday I follow my mother to the market and help her to carry vegetables and fish back home. Some times my mother asks me to cut vegetables. I readily do I wash vegetables. I like to give small help whenever I am free from school work.

One day when my mother was sick, I cooked dishes for lunch. My mother is always happy and tells me that I should be good to everyone.
