In this lesson, you will learn about different types of homes around the world! You will discover how people in Thailand live on the water in floating houses, see how Mongolian families enjoy life in big open fields with friendly animals, and explore the treehouses of Papua New Guinea. By the end of our adventure, you will be able to share what makes each of these homes special and how they are different from your own home!
Hey there! Are you ready to go on a fun adventure with me? Let’s explore some amazing places where people live in different kinds of homes. It’s going to be super exciting!
In Thailand, people have special homes on the water. Instead of cars, they use boats to get around. Imagine living in a house that floats! Isn’t that cool?
Now, let’s visit Mongolia. Here, people live in big, open fields with lots of animals like sheep and horses. The fields are green and beautiful, and the animals are friendly. It’s like living in a giant, grassy playground!
Our next adventure takes us to Papua New Guinea. People here live in houses high up in the trees. The green leaves keep the homes cool and safe. It’s like having a treehouse all the time!
I hope you had fun exploring these amazing places with me! If you want to see more adventures, you can search for Ping Pong on YouTube. Don’t forget to tell your friends about the fun places we visited!
Build Your Own Floating House: Gather some materials like small plastic containers, straws, and paper to create a model of a floating house like the ones in Thailand. Fill a basin with water and see if your house can float. Discuss with your friends or family why some materials float and others sink. What makes a good floating house?
Animal Field Trip: Pretend you are in Mongolia and go on a mini field trip to a local park or backyard. Look for animals like birds, squirrels, or even pets. Talk about how these animals might live in the fields of Mongolia. What do they eat? How do they play? Draw a picture of your favorite animal and share it with your class.
Create a Treehouse Drawing: Imagine you live in a treehouse like the ones in Papua New Guinea. Draw a picture of your dream treehouse. What would you have inside? How would you decorate it? Share your drawing with your classmates and explain why you chose those features.
