After India, America, and Russia, now we have moved to a country that  is a hub of  manufacturing for decades for the entire world. Yes, China! So tune in to our audio podcast for kids and learn about some famous Chinese Inventions that changed the world.   Starting with the most important product ever invented, Paper. Paper is a thing that is used everywhere- be it in school, office, college or home, it is to be seen in all the places. Paper was invented by a person named Cai Lun. Cai Lun’s paper-making technology covered entire Central Asia and people were so impressed by it that it has now become an integral part of our lives.    Next up we have another unique invention of China, printing. Around 220 AD, China introduced a technique of printing called Woodblock printing but it was very expensive and time-consuming. So years later, a person named Bisheng, introduced a new type of movable printer which was quicker and a lot easier. This new technique of printing first got popular in Europe and then all across the world.    Not just paper, China also invented the most importantant navigational instrument, Compass. Earlier these were used as a navigational instrument only in Chinese ships. But with time other people adopted this directional instrument and started using it largely. This instrument was invented and discovered by a group of people.    Umbrella, a device used for protection from rain and sunlight, is also a Chinese inventions. It was invented first by a carpenter named Luben. His invention was inspired by a few kids, whom he saw taking shelter under lotus leaf on a rainy day. Therefore, he used his skills and made this flexible framework called an umbrella.   Tea, a popular beverage all around the world especially in India, is another Chinese invention during the Tang dynasty. Tea was first introduced by Shang, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty. There was also a book on tea, “Cha-Ching” written by Lu Yu in the same dynasty.   www.chimesradio.com
