How do families find a home in different parts of the world? This free printable coloring page takes kids on a trip to three countries. Each country has two simple scenes that show something real about homes today.
China: Tall apartment buildings are still being finished, and families wonder if it's the right time to buy. Kids also see how a busy big city is different from a quiet small town.
Australia: A piggy bank shows that families save and borrow money to buy a house. An apartment building with a "For Rent" sign shows that renting can be hard in big cities like Sydney and Melbourne.
Canada: A calendar full of monthly payments shows how families pay for a home a little at a time. A building site shows new homes going up for a growing population.
Great for: classrooms, homeschool, geography and social studies lessons, and early money-education activities. Ages 5–10.
How to use: Download the page, print it on Letter or A4 paper, and start coloring! Then ask: Which country would you like to live in? Would you rent a home or buy one?
