Abstract "Children are naturally interested in their world. This book invites children to explore the world around them, learn about different cultures, consider a variety of careers, and discover the uniqueness of their very own neighborhood. Starting with the many ways we are alike and different, and expanding on to the variety of homes around the world, children will enlarge their horizons with these social studies activities that are perfect for children ages three to six. Each of the books in the Learn Every Day series offers teachers one hundred classroom-tested activities that make learning fun and engaging for young children!"-- Provided by publisher.
