			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Cartoons have always been the first love of kids. They watch cartoons on television more than adults watch the news. Animated characters attract their attention coupled with the child friendly story-line and sound effects. In early school days, drawing is first lesson that is introduced to kids almost the same time with writing letters. It is not surprising that some kids love to draw their favorite cartoon characters for their drawing assignments, and even sometimes to the point of not paying attention in class. Kids love cartoons and it is a common phenomenon that they will likely to start drawing their favorite cartoon heroes at this stage. Some kids will develop their artistic talents through this habit while other kids will eventually stop drawing cartoons and just content themselves with watching them on television.</p>
<p>At this point, those who have developed and maintained their love for cartoon drawing must be given more attention to help them improve this talent that would most likely be considered as a career. Professional cartoon artists today started drawing at a very early age, even when the television was not yet popular. The great cartoonist Walt Disney started drawing the world famous Mickey Mouse on the garage of the house where he lives while fascinated by the creatures running around. Parents should encourage their children who they have seen to have these unique talents rather than to be a reason to scold them for not getting serious with their studies.</p>
<p>Appreciation is a form of reward and generally increases the behavior reinforced. They will feel special in this way, and they will know that you are also happy with what they are doing. Instead of getting mad at him drawing in his notebook and everywhere else, but him a drawing book for his sketches. In this way, he/she will not anymore draw in his notebooks and books but in the drawing book given by you. Enrollment on a summer art program work in many ways. First, he gets to improve his skill in cartoon drawing, and he gets to spend his vacation productively. Further, you can do other things knowing that he is doing something safe and enjoying it.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Humor is the ability to see funny or contradictory aspects of life and make people laugh. Jokes, cartoons, satires and comedies are forms of humor that entertain and enlighten people. Humor has an amazing ability to make people see a unique aspect of the situation without using harsh words. People are fond of humor and they do not mind if any harsh reality is shown through humor. The importance of humor becomes more significant in today&#8217;s world of political correctness, where people do not like to say anything against anyone even if the person is doing something wrong. Humor is a polite and interesting way of showing disapproval of a man or his actions, without seeming rude.</p>
<p>Cartoon is an art form that describes a funny aspect of a situation using drawing. Cartoon drawing requires lots of practice as well as thorough knowledge of the situation being portrayed in the art work. People who draw cartoons as profession or hobby are known as cartoonists. A cartoon is a funny illustration of a person or a situation. When physical characteristics of a person is shown using a cartoon then it is known as a caricature. People drawing them are known as caricaturists. Drawing a caricature requires a lot of practice as it is not easy. To draw caricature of a person first of all it is important to study the facial characteristics of the subject. They find out the prominent features of the face to exaggerate in the caricature.</p>
<p>In today&#8217;s world, the art of cartooning is used in various ways. Newspapers use political cartoons, drawn on political current affairs. Comic strips are also published in newspapers that have a set of characters shown in different situations in each new strip. There are animators who use computer software to draw and animate cartoons for making animation films. Even advertising agencies use cartoon to portray any funny situation in an ad campaign.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Everyone loves a good cartoon whether they will admit it or not. In fact, many adults sit and watch cartoons yet claim they are doing it for the children or grandchild. Watching cartoons is a relaxing activity, especially when you take in the funnies instead of some of the more violent ones. Who doesn’t read the cartoons in the daily and Sunday newspaper? If you say you don’t watch cartoons on television or read them in the newspaper, you are one of those people who is afraid to admit there is still a little bit of child in you.</p>
<p>Cartoons are fun for everyone whether you’re watching them on television, reading them in the newspaper or even wearing them on a tee shirt or other item of clothing. Children wear cartoons on their backpacks and lunch boxes, so why should they have a monopoly on enjoying cartoons? Part of the problem lies in the fact that many adults feel that cartoons are for kids and thus if they find someone else watching a cartoon they see it as a “childish” act. The reality is that everyone—even grandparents—are prone to childish acts at one time or another. If no one ever acted like a child, no one would play with their children or grandchildren.</p>
<p>How often is childish behavior like watching cartoons allowed for one to be considered normal? Why is it okay to read the cartoons in the daily paper but not to watch them on television? There is a problem with the way people approach the idea of cartoon viewing, and doing so deprives many people of the pleasures they can experience from this simple act. Each of us needs time to unwind, and we can do that with cartoons, even those on tee shirts, jackets or other items of clothing. Cartoon Bank has many cartoons available in many different formats for you to enjoy.</p>
