An African Safari.

An African Safari. Let's visit two museums in Africa! We'll start in Egypt, the country where the Nile River Nile RiverArabic Bahr al-NilRiver, eastern and northeastern Africa. The longest river in the world, it is about 4,132 mi (6,650 km) long from its remotest headstream (which flows into Lake Victoria) to the Mediterranean Sea. flows into the Mediterranean Sea Mediterranean Sea[Lat.,=in the midst of lands], the world's largest inland sea, c.965,000 sq mi (2,499,350 sq km), surrounded by Europe, Asia, and Africa.GeographyThe Mediterranean is c.2,400 mi (3,900 km) long with a maximum width of c. . In Heliopolis, a city near Cairo, there is a garden that grows trees, flowers and artists! This is the garden of the Suzanne Mubarak Suzanne Mubarak (birth name Suzanne Saleh Sabet or Thabet) (Arabic: سوزان مبارك) (born February 28, 1941) is married to Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak and is the first lady of Egypt. Children's Museum Children's museums are institutions that provide exhibits and programs that stimulate informal learning experiences for children. In contrast with traditional museums that typically have a hands-off policy regarding exhibits, children's museums feature interactive exhibits that are , where a special arts and activities program takes place. Children spend time painting with oil and watercolor and drawing with charcoal. They also learn how to draw on papyrus, just like Egyptian artists did in the time when the pyramids were built. You might expect that a museum in a garden would offer a course on plants, and you're right! Children learn to recognize different plant species, and how to plant a flower in pot. How many times have you been told to eat your vegetables? If you visited the garden museum, you would be encouraged to grow your vegetables--in a special greenhouse. At the end of the program, children display the plants they have grown and the art they've created in a big exhibition! Now let's go Let's Go may refer to: TelevisionLet's Go (Philippine TV series), a teen Philippine sitcom on ABS-CBN Let's Go (New Zealand TV series), a New Zealand television music show Let's Go all the way to the other tip of Africa, to South Africa. We'll have a look at a museum exhibit created by children. Many children in the world experience prejudice, just as this child from South Africa: "My skin is a very light colour, but I am coloured person, people call me whitey whit��eyalso Whit��ey ?n. pl. whit��eys Offensive SlangUsed as a disparaging term for a white person or white people.Noun 1. . My friend Megan is also a coloured person, but her skin is very dark, the other children call her darky--none of us like to be called names, it is not nice."--Nazely Vincent Nazely and 39 other 6th and 7th graders from South Africa got the chance to tell their stories about prejudice and discrimination by participating in a year-long program of discussions and workshops on the topic. Their stories were recorded and used to create a museum exhibit called "Face to Face," which is part of the Iziko Stories project from the South African Museum. As Kyle, one of the children participating in the project, explained, "Culture is the way someone grew up and where they come from." What better way to learn about the culture of South Africa There is no single Culture of South Africa. As South Africa is so ethnically diverse, it is not surprising that there are vast cultural differences as well. Main Cultural differences than to hear a story from a child who is growing up there?
