WHERE IS EGYPT?
Sunny Desert in Egypt
Most of the land in Egypt is desert.
In Egypt’s desert, the sun shines bright almost every day! It is very sunny.
The ground in the desert isn’t grass — it’s all sand!
Sometimes the wind blows and makes big hills of sand
The Nile River
There’s a big, long river called the Nile. It’s so long, boats can float for days on it!
Can you stretch your arms out super wide to show how long the river is?
Animals of Egypt
Egypt is full of amazing animals! There are tall camels that walk across the desert
sand. Camels can walk for a long time without water!
The Pyramids
Now look! What are those giant triangles made of stone? They’re pyramids!
They were built a long, long time ago—before your great-great-greatgrandparents were born! People built them for their kings.
Let’s make a pyramid shape with our arms over our heads!
The Pharaohs
In ancient Egypt, the kings and queens were called Pharaohs.
They wore shiny crowns and beautiful clothes.
