Hello,
We are the artists from Bobland. Each of us has his own talent. In our own way we can introduce our country to you. We would like to know about other countries. If you present your country, we can learn from
each other. To start we will show Bobland to you, we will tell you who we are.
Numbers, numbers, how much of this and how much of that ...
That’s my talent. I am the numberbob.You can often find me
between the inventors and scientists for the latest news.
I’m dancing bob, Bobelina. My feet never stop. Besides
dancing, I really enjoy a ballet, theater, ...
I’m artbob. I get inspiration
from all the wonderful things
from my country. I make paintings, sculptures and drawings.
I can also look at maps for
hours. I am the designer of the
flag of Bobland.
They sometimes call me silent
bob. Because I like a quiet place
to enjoy myself. I like to put
time into my work. So then I can
be proud of myself. And in all I
do, I get to know myself better.
Thanks to me, every bob has his
own passport.
We are the groupbobs. We enjoy working together. We look
around in our country at people
who make beautiful things together. Again and again we think
about how the bobs in Bobland
live.
I’m naturebob. Rain or shine,
no matter. I pull it out every
day. I study the animals and
flowers around me, I love the
sea, mountains, meadows and
woods. And of course I’m crazy
about experiments.
As a true musicbob
singing and making
music is my passion and
my life. I know every
song and instrument
from my country. I
know every artist. Music makes me happy.
Letterbob is my well deserved name . I make poems,
stories, books, ... I like to browse in old dusty books.
Letters have no secrets for me.

Bobs . And of course I paint myself. On canvas, on
paper, acrylic, watercolor, whatever you want. I make
the best statues of clay, wooden furniture and I love
to make beatifull things with needle and thread for
every bob.

Language
I know all the great writers and poets of Bobland.
I also know some writers from other countries I
would like to introduce them to you. I love the sto-
ries of Pippi Longstocking . Astrid Lindgren wrote
all the stories about this cute girl a long time ago,
but Pippi is forever, I never get tired of her.
My favorite poet is Annie MGSchmidt. You already
know her poems :The spider Sebastian, I am naughty
... Her stories about Floddertje and Pluk are known
by thousands of children and Bobs.
But enough about the poets and writers. I like to
puzzle with letters and enjoy
learning other languages. I have learned the human
language quite well, don’t you think? In Bobland we
speak Bobistiq . That’s a nice language without consonants. It sounds like: Iaoayoay: this means: I am so
happy today. Bob’s still write books with feathers
and purple berry juice.
Tips:
Make a beautiful poem poster. Create a
work of art with letters. Write a word in
different ways, with different materials.
Collect clippings from newspapers and
magazines and make a joyful collage with it.
Make a
composition with painted letters or use a
template.
content
Enough about us.Tell me about your language.What
characters do you use? Who are the great writers
and poets of your country? What language is spoken in your country? Do you have artists who create beautiful things with letters? Do you have nice
spells? Have fun and tell me as much as possible. But
do not tell too many words. I like to watch pictures,
letters, images, .... as long as it is beautiful.

Nature
Even though I am yellow. They call me the green
Bob. Not green with envy, but green fingers because
you can always find me outside in the woods , feelds
near the water, ... Are you looking for beautiful
places? I know them all. Got a bite, an injury or pain?
I solve it with remedies from nature. Every animal
knows my name and not a tree, plant or flower is
unknown to me. Pictures speak louder than words
so take a look at the landscape of Bobland:
there are lots of butterflies, bees, ladybugs, ...
All the flowers have large
leafs and bright colors
snails wearing their
cozy cottages along
everywhere you see
high grass and broad
green leaves grow
from the ground
The marsh marigold grows under the ground

the pictures in a drawing or painting. Paint a
landscape inspired by Monet at different times.
Paint the most beautiful flowers with aquarel.

use only things from nature. Make a drink, an

Me
I’m me-bob. I am a thinker. If you want to know
what I know everything about, it’s about myself. I
made a whole museum about me where you can
learn all about me. I also like working on my own.
So I can think like no other and I can think about
how things work, why things happen, why I do things
the way I do. By myself I like to read about other
great thinkers like Socrates and Aristotle. They are
ancient thinkers.
Each country now has its own thinkers. We have
Boudste. If we have a problem, we ask for his advice.
Then he pulls back for a moment to think. After a
while he returns with his wisdom.
Tips:
Make a museum of yourself on paper / in a
book / internet / ... Make a book containing the
best spells and ideas you know. Make a painting
of a spell. Draw the world and give yourself a
place in it. Create a portrait of yourself. Get
yourself a passport that shows who you are.
Do something you can be proud of and show
it to everyone!
Do you also like to think about the big questions?
Do you know who you really are? Who are the
great philosophers of your country? What are your
dreams and desires? What are you proud of? What
do you like? Take the time to think about yourself
or do what you always wanted to do quietly on
your own.

Numbers
I’m Bob27, scripts, numbers, formulas, codes, ..... I
can not live without! Together with other numberwizzards, I am always looking for puzzles to solve,
mysteries to unravel, dates which can be played ...
My big examples are Newton, Einstein and Leonardo Da Vinci.
They were always looking for the secrets of the
world and yet they managed to decipher them as
well. If you keep your eyes open you’ll find numbers anywhere you look : number of inhabitants per
country, dates of events, lock codes, codes on cards,
birthdays, money, formulas, passwords, degrees of
maps, coordinates, ...
Tips:
Are you allready in the mood for numbers? Do
you want to explore alle the numbers you can find?
Look, listen, feel, .... stick your nose in the books.Tell
as much about your country in numbers as you can.
Show your creativity and ingenuity here. Who are
the great inventors, explorers and scientists from
your country? Where can I find your country on
the map?

of your town. Devise a way to tell us about a
famous invention from your country in a secret
language.

Music
Music Maestro! I love music. I listen to music. I make
music. I sing in the shower and on the stage. I’m
musicbob. Bobs make music anytime, anywhere.
While painting they sing, you hear whistles in the
woods, there are pianos in every house and in the
middle of the forest stands a harp. So wherever you
go, you hear music.
I myself play the violin. With a soft sound I wake
everybody up in the morning, and every night
everyone falls back asleep with violin music. In music, everyone is different. Some like quiet tunes, others are about to swing on the grass and stear up
the sound even louder, some make music and some
listen to others.
I do not know many of your countries music . I only
know the great masters of history and I have no
idea where they come from and where they lived.
So I do know Mozart and Beethoven. Madonna I
once heard already, but I would like to learn much
more about music from all over the world.
This thing we have in common: many Bobs read
music like a book, but with notes instead of letters.
Tips:
Do you know famous musicians from your country?
Do you have famous composers in history? What
instruments are often played in your country? Do
you know what an orchestra is and if there are large
orchestras with you? Do you have an anthem? Do
you have traditions in music, such songs are sung
repeatedly for special events or shows that you can
attend every year again? Tell it, sing it, play it, ...
content
Create a typical instrument of your country.
Draw an overview of the music from your
country. Search the web for famous songs or
instrumental music and share them with others
via Internet. Write a song with a musical score.
Sing it, record it and show it .
