🌍 All About World Flags
Introduction
Flags are special pieces of cloth that tell us about a country. Every flag has its own colors, shapes, and pictures that show the people’s story and pride.
1. What Is a Flag?
A flag is a rectangle that waves in the wind. It is used on tall poles, in schools, at sports games, and on ships. People look at flags to know where someone is from.
2. Colors and Pictures
- Red can mean brave hearts or a lot of sunshine.
- Blue often stands for the sky or big oceans.
- Green may show forests or fields.
Many flags have symbols like a Star, Sun, Bird, or Mountain. These pictures are like tiny pictures that tell a story.
3. How Flags Tell Stories
Each country chooses its flag to show what is important to them.
- Japan’s Flag has a white background with a red circle that looks like the sun.
- Brazil’s Flag has a green field with a yellow diamond and a blue globe with stars, showing its rain‑forest and night sky.
4. Make Your Own Flag!
Grab a piece of paper and crayons. Think about:
- What colors you love.
- A shape or picture that means something to you (maybe a heart, a tree, or a smile).
Draw your design and hang it up. You have made a flag that tells your own story!
