We want to build a house! But first, let’s change our clothes. Wow, look at us now!
Architects wear hard hats to keep safe when they visit places where buildings are being made. Safety first!
Look at Kiki’s hand! It’s a blueprint! Before we build a house, architects draw a picture of it. This helps the builders know what to do.
Imagine a big house made of sweets! Yum! Let’s start building it together!
Yay! We are little architects with a house design! Let’s build a house together! Look at what we can do!

Did you know there are many special buildings in the world? Like the Great Wall of China, the Eiffel Tower in France, the Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy, and the Sydney Opera House in Australia. All these were designed by amazing architects!
Wow, architects do wonderful things! Kiki, you learned so much today! You even got an architect badge! Mission complete!
Design Your Dream House: Grab some paper and crayons, and draw your own blueprint! Imagine what your dream house would look like. Will it have a slide, a pool, or maybe a candy room? Share your drawing with your friends and explain why you chose those features.
Build with Blocks: Using building blocks or any safe materials you have at home, try to build a small model of a house. Think about how you can make it strong and stable. Can you make it taller or add more rooms? Experiment with different designs and see what works best!
Spot the Architect’s Work: Next time you go for a walk or a drive, look around and try to spot different buildings. Can you find a tall building, a colorful house, or a building with an interesting shape? Talk with your family about what makes each building special and how architects might have designed them.
