Hello, friends in this post I am not talking about cartoons made up of paper for children, and I am also not talking about cartoons made on political issues. Most of us have seen many cartoons/ jokes in the newspaper. That is considered a joke for fun. But here we are not talking about those newspaper cartoons.
Now we also can see cartoons or jokes on most Facebook pages. we also said them as 'memes'. But here in this post, we are going to talk about computer-animated cartoons. Now let's discuss these animated cartoons that can be watched on TV and YouTube made for children.
Cartoons are a very popular and effective means of teaching and entertaining children. Children can learn various things like the alphabet, names of countries, and names of various things used in the house. It becomes very easy to learn what has been taught in the schools to be remembered.
Children neither feel hungry nor sleepy after watching cartoons. They want to watch cartoons. A cartoon can say a lot with a little. What we can't explain by reading or reminding a book, cartoons can explain with one picture or one video. It not only educates the children but also entertains them.
Who invented Cartoon Animation?
If the anger is rising in a child, the anger will also be erased easily with the help of these animated cartoons. William Hogarth is the originator of cartoon art which has become so popular. He popularized this art in the 18th century. The cartoon he started with pen and ink has now developed into an art form that can be shown as a film by shooting a camera or animating on a computer.
However, the proverb that too much makes you bitter or that if you eat too much sugar it becomes bitter, it is also applicable in cartoons. Problems such as lack of concentration and anger have been observed in children due to excessive watching of cartoons. Anger that has arisen after seeing well is erased, and anger that has not been seen much arises.

Who invented paper?
Inventing paper was a great invention of man. Because, after the invention of paper, people started to save their history and knowledge by writing in detail. People started writing their knowledge, thoughts, ideas, books, etc. Before that, it was customary to write on leather, stone, metal, and animal hard shells.
In some countries, there was a custom of writing on leaves in ancient times. At that time, the popular way was to write on stones. And In Nepal there is called Nepali paper which is made from the bark of a kind of plant, is Nepal's own invention. Government records of Nepal are kept in this Nepali paper. Nepali paper does not deteriorate quickly and is durable for a long time.
However, in the context of the world, when, where, and who invented such a great and useful thing in the world for the first time? Let's talk about this. Even before the invention of paper, people had already learned the art of writing.
In the 15,000-20,000-year-old caves, drawings by human ancestors are still preserved in the world. In China, the letters written on the shell of a turtle are still preserved. 4000 BC, i.e. 6018 years before today, Sumerian people used to send news or information from one place to another by making clay shapes that give different symbolic meanings.
Our ancestors wrote on bark, stone, pottery, cloth, metal, bamboo, and tree leaves. And this journey runs for a long time people have successfully and finally invented paper. The word 'paper' is used in English to refer to such a thing.
The word paper is developed in Egypt. A type of plant is found in Egypt on the banks of the Nile, which is called papyrus. 5000 BC, that is, 7000 years before today, the people of Egypt used to cut papyrus peels and make them like paper plates. By making it smoother, they also used it as a cloth.
Since then, for about 3000 years, there seems to have been no significant progress in making paper. And Tsai Lun of China is considered the person who invented paper. He used to mix the pulp of mulberry tree and bamboo fiber with water and beat it with wood to make powder and pour it on clothes. When doing so, the water would run down, leaving only a stain on the cloth. When it was dried, it would become paper. This technology also spread to Korea.
