Bubble Machine or Buy little bubble tubs and put them in Lolly bags for everybody to have - or put them on the table to people can help themselves to them.

Decorations - Blow up balloons and tie them and put them in a room on the floor. The kids/babies can play with them and kick them around.
Have a careful eye if the balloons pop and quickly pick up the rubber so the kids don't eat it. Also any balls, Blow up Beach Balls are great.

Also Streamers you could stickytape from corners of the room with different colours. I twisted 2 colours together which looked cool.

If you want to spend some money you could get a few balloons with Helium so the children can take one home each. Use them as Table decorations (I bought 8 and used 2 on each table, and Hung 3 on my car mirror (As is was at a Park) But if it is at our house you could hang them on your letter box/bin so ppl know where your house is.

What should my theme of my sweet 16 be and what activities should I do at it?

I am wanting to know what the theme of my party should be if I am renting a hall in springfield illinois for my sweet 16 and having both friends and family at the party.

Answer
Either a Candlyland theme. you can have a candy bar and then for favors give them a box with your name on it and the guest can fill it with candy from the candy bar. hire a local dj company. get a bake with the candy land board on it with you in the castle on top instead of the king. rent a cotton candy maker and have someone in your family run it.

Or an luau. you can get a tropical type dress. have each table decorated with a different Hawaiian item(leis, grass skirt, coconuts, tropical fish). for favor you could but pretty Hawaiian style plastic glasses put decorative rocks in them with a tropical flower sticking out of the top and but a sticker on the bottom on the glass with your name on it. again you could hire a local dj. for a cake you could have it like a beach with gram cracker sand and sugar decorations.

~Hopes this helps and gives you an idea of themes

A science student is riding on a flatcar of a train traveling along a straight horizontal track at a constant speed of 9.0 m/s. The student throws a ball along a path that she judges to make an initial angle of 50.0° with the horizontal and to be in line with the track. The student's professor, who is standing on the ground nearby, observes the ball to rise vertically. How high does the ball rise?
____m



A daredevil decides to jump a canyon. It's walls are equally high and 12 m apart. He takes off by driving a motorcycle up a short ramp sloped at an angle of 14°. What minimum speed must he have in order to clear the canyon?
____m/s

Answer
vector A: first one is -45º = 315º w/r/t +x
second one is 45º

science student: horiz Vh = Vcos50 = 9m/s, so V = 14 m/s
max. height = (V·sinÎ)² / (2g) = (14m/s * sin50)² / 19.6m/s² = 5.9 m

daredevil: range = (V²sin(2Î))/g
12 m = V² * sin28º / 9.8m/s²
V = 16 m/s

what things can i draw?

Elisha

what stuff could i draw to improve my drawing skills?
I'm not allowed to draw people and animals though.
Na, religious reasons. We're not allowed to draw humans or animals, pathetic if u ask me...
I'm muslim and it says that I'm not allowed to immitate gods creations, so drawing humans and animals is forbidden.

and "The most severely punished of people on the Day of Resurrection will be the image-makers, those who tried to imitate the creation of god"
yeah, i was thinking that, nature is also god creation but apparently its ok to do that though, we're encouraged to draw nature =l
and I KNOW! i LOVE drawing. Art is like litterally my life. Its just cruel if god takes that away from me. It can't be a sin to draw, i don't see what is wrong by putting graphite on paper... It doesnt make you a bad person if you draw. I don't see why people who express themselves should be most severly punished! There are alot worse things that you can do. And its not like im intending to create something better than god did...

But i did some research and you are allowed to draw, but not animate stuff.

I, too, agree with maddysun... about Ismlamic art in architecture.

They have done enormously beautiful Calligraphy [of Allah's or the prophet's words or rubaiyat from Koran] that give an appearance of floral designs, geometric patterns, etc. [I would say, it was a good basis for Fractal Art.] So check out some of these Calligraphic techniques eg. Taj Mahal, Aya Sophiya, etc.
Here are some images :

And how about anime & cartoons ? Are you permitted to draw those ? These can be closest to human/animal forms, without actually/realistically being so.

Also, as many have already suggested, landscapes, seascapes, still-life, ....

You can also make it Suggestive. eg. clothes strewn around the room to indicate a messy person [teenager ;-)))] ; an upholstered chair that has just been sat on ; a table at meal-time - before or after ; car-tracks on a muddy road [the way you draw them will indicate the speed of the car, etc.] ; a book left open - someone was reading & just left for a few seconds? ; or a telephone receiver off its hook ; toys in a kid's room ; a stable or shed [from the inside] ; and so on. This can Actually become your trademark style !

Here's what my usual answer is - just ignore whatever is 'taboo' for you :
I'm listing categories & when you choose individual items from these categories, your list will become Huge ;-))) Moreover, you can choose from various categories to make your drawing tell a "story".

- the sky [ day & night sky] -- sun, moon, clouds, stars, ......
- the elements - rain, fire, water, land, ....
- beaches - sand, oceans, surfers, shells, driftwood, tides, ...
- aquatic life - algae, whales, sharks, octopus, coral reefs, deep-sea divers, ....
- islands, boats, ships, nets, trawlers, anglers, ....
- still-life -- any & all objects at home, using different light sources & perspectives, shadows & reflections
- yourself, friends & family - portraits, caricatures, ....
- nature from your window -- trees, neighborhood, lawns, birds, ....
- animals, including pets
- birds
- plants, trees, flowers, bees & butterflies.....
- humans performing various activities â series of dancers eg.
- transport systems - bus, car, train, plane, spaceship, UFO, ....
- dreams & fantasies
- mountains, rivers, landscapes, .....
- anatomy
the list can go on & on ;-)

you can change the same sketch by
- drawing close-ups, or 'long-shots'
- drawing realistically, in cartoon form or as fantasy forms
- changing the light source, direction & intensity, including night-time
- drawing only outlines or including shading & shadows [2-D v/s 3-D effect]
- using different types of pencils, charcoal, ..... &/or colors - water, oil, acrylic, crayons, pencils, glitter, glass paints, mosaic-work,....
- changing the perspective & angle
- using surrealism, cubism, abstract forms... ....
may be you can go wild ;-)) use diff techniques & media - including pastels, crayons, oils, cut-n-paste, mosaic, cartoon-drawing, symbolism, etc....
- check out old greeting cards, magazines, net images, comic books, etc. to get some ideas. use these ideas to create your own drawing.
- you could make a 'series' of any one thing. different ways of going about it :
eg. flowers - have 15 different types of flowers in the 15 drawings;
or, have the same flower [eg. rose] but depicted in different ways - eg. in close-up, in a garden, with a bee humming over it, as a bouquet, in a dried-petal arrangement [glued] along with dried leaves/herbs, & so on;
or, each life-stage of a flower;
or you could change the light source, light intensity, colors [from black n white to monochrome to multicolored]
- you could paint a series on school-related stuff. eg. the different rooms in your school, or the diff articles of school usage, the school colors & emblem, diff activities at school, diff moods of students at school, & so on.

How about trying to Visualize & draw Emotions / Traits, etc. eg. Courage, Love, Fear, Hate, Perseverance, Peace, Joy, Kindness, Naivety, etc.

You could also depict Life stages or Rites of Passage such as Birth, Death, Adulthood, Maturation, Childishness, Teenage years, Mid-life crisis, Old age, Senility, Marriage, Widowhood, becoming a grandparent,....

You could think of some "story", incident, issue, quotation, joke, ... & try to depict them through your sketches.

You can choose characters from any book, comic, film, poem, etc. that you like & develop them visually. Draw them as you "see" them.

For any or all of the above, you could do a whole Spectrum of emotions, expressions, positive-to-negative, and so on.
