🌟 My Neighbourhood - A Fun Adventure! 🌟

One sunny morning, Meena and her friends decided to explore their neighbourhood. They saw colourful houses, a busy market selling fresh mangoes 🍋 and bananas 🍌, a small park where kids played, and even a friendly dog named Tommy 🐶! Meena’s neighbourhood was full of life and happy faces. Let’s learn more about what makes a neighbourhood special!

What is a Neighbourhood? 🏡

A neighbourhood is the place where you live. It has many things like:

  • Houses and apartments where people live 🏠
  • Shops and markets to buy things 🛍️
  • Schools where children study 📚
  • Parks where people play and relax 🌳
  • Roads and streets for walking and vehicles 🚗
  • Temples, mosques, churches, or gurudwaras for prayers 🙏

Let’s See Our Neighbourhood! 🗺️

Place What You Find There Example from India 🇮🇳
Market Fruits, vegetables, toys, clothes Chandni Chowk market, Delhi
Park Trees, swings, slides, benches Cubbon Park, Bangalore

📝 Important Rules to Remember!

Rule 1: Always keep your neighbourhood clean by throwing garbage in dustbins. 🗑️

Rule 2: Be kind and help your neighbours. Good neighbours make a happy neighbourhood! 😊

Rule 3: Respect public places like parks and temples. Don’t damage plants or walls. 🌿🙏
