TIKI TIKI TEMBO FULL
It is a funny story and Sooraj and I had a great time saying 'Tikki Tikki Tembo's full name in rhyme. After this near disaster incident, according to the legend, Chinese decided to name even their first sons with rather small and easy names. Finally help arrives and Tikki Tikki Tembo is rescued but, he takes many months to recover. Both of them make the second son say his brother's full name before listening to him say what the problem is. The same problem arises when the second son runs to tell the man with the ladder.
