<p>Cartoons always fascinate kids and most of them end up idolising their favourite cartoon characters.The tiny tots of Baldwin Boys High School took a break from their routine and came face-to-face with cartoon character Ben 10 and others, who paid a visit to their school in the City, recently. <br /><br />The cartoon characters, as well as the children, attended the house warming party of ‘Oggy and the Cockroaches’ (a popular cartoon show). The party will be held <br />in various schools across the City so as to give the children a chance to interact with the cartoon character.<br /><br /> Ben 10 paid a surprise visit to the school and had the children waving and shaking hands with him. The students could not contain their excitement when they saw Ben 10 on the stage. <br /><br />Many of them ran up to the stage to greet him and tell him how much they loved <br />him. The fourth standard students of the school got a chance to shake a leg with Ben 10 after a long wait and seemed to know everything about ‘Oggy and the Cockroaches’. <br /><br />“We are very excited to meet Ben 10. This is my favourite show and I watch it every evening. We never expected Ben 10 and Oggy at the school today. It is such a great surprise for us,” says Sayyed Nurbasha, a class four student.<br /><br /> An interactive session was held for the students, where they were quizzed about Oggy and Ben 10. Poojit, a student of class four, was handed over a hamper for getting a correct answer. <br /><br />“I watch a lot of cartoons and it’s my favourite pass time. The shows I watch include ‘Power Puff Girls’, ‘Ben 10’ and ‘Oggy and the Cockroaches’. I am pleasantly surprised that Ben 10 has chosen our school and I am looking forward to chatting with him today,” he says.<br /><br />The team will travel across eight cities and go to 550 schools across the country to interact with more than 50,000 students. <br /><br />These visits are part of a school contact programme, which has been named ‘Oggy Di New House Party’. <br /><br />The children will be included in a host of activities like quizzes and interactive <br />sessions. </p>.<p><br />As Ben 10 entered the stage and danced, the children who were instructed to sit in their places, couldn’t contain their excitement and broke into a quick jig with the cartoon character. <br /><br />“I love ‘Ben 10’ and don’t miss watching it every single day. We were supposed to have classes but Ben 10 is here and we are having such a great time. We are excited about the gifts and the activities that we are going to participate in. I know everything about Ben 10 and hope to bag some prizes,” beams Gothvaj, another student.<br />It was a welcome break for the children and the happiness and excitement was pretty visible on their faces. <br /></p>
