We're off on a colourful journey around the world. | 0:00:39 | 0:00:45 | |
I wonder who we're going to meet today. | 0:00:45 | 0:00:49 | |
This is market day in a hot city in the country of Mali in Africa. | 0:00:49 | 0:00:55 | |
-It looks very busy. -It does. | 0:00:55 | 0:00:58 | |
The buildings that you see here are built with mud. | 0:00:58 | 0:01:03 | |
This is four-year-old Mamakeyanta and his dad. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:10 | |
Hello, Mamakeyanta! | 0:01:10 | 0:01:12 | |
He's going to help his dad mend their home using mud. | 0:01:12 | 0:01:17 | |
-Mud?! -Yes. | 0:01:17 | 0:01:20 | |
Where are they going? | 0:01:22 | 0:01:24 | |
They're off to a place where they can fill their baskets with mud. | 0:01:24 | 0:01:29 | |
-It looks like a long way! -It does! | 0:01:32 | 0:01:36 | |
There. They've reached a dry river bed | 0:01:42 | 0:01:45 | |
where there's lots of mud to be found. | 0:01:45 | 0:01:48 | |
Dad's paddling in the mud! | 0:01:49 | 0:01:53 | |
-It looks gooey and wet! -Yes. | 0:01:53 | 0:01:57 | |
But it also helps to make the mud nice and soft and wet. | 0:01:57 | 0:02:02 | |
Dad puts the mud in his basket. | 0:02:03 | 0:02:07 | |
There. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:19 | |
Off they go with the baskets full of mud, | 0:02:24 | 0:02:28 | |
back along the way they came, to their home. | 0:02:28 | 0:02:32 | |
Home. And Mamakeyanta and Dad are ready to start | 0:02:45 | 0:02:50 | |
on the work of mending the wall. | 0:02:50 | 0:02:53 | |
What are they putting in the mud? | 0:02:53 | 0:02:56 | |
Lots of dry bits like straw to make to make it thicker and stronger. | 0:02:57 | 0:03:02 | |
This will help the mud to stick better to the wall. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:05 | |
It looks like they're making a cake! | 0:03:05 | 0:03:08 | |
-A mud cake! -It does. | 0:03:08 | 0:03:12 | |
It's really gooey! | 0:03:19 | 0:03:21 | |
Splat! | 0:03:25 | 0:03:27 | |
Splat! | 0:03:28 | 0:03:30 | |
-That looks fun! -Yes, but it's very important work too. | 0:03:30 | 0:03:35 | |
Now they're rubbing and spreading the mud on the walls | 0:03:35 | 0:03:39 | |
to cover and mend all the cracks. | 0:03:39 | 0:03:43 | |
This will help to make the wall really, really strong. | 0:03:43 | 0:03:46 | |
You're a great helper, Mamakeyanta! | 0:03:46 | 0:03:49 | |
He is. He's doing exactly what his daddy is doing - | 0:03:49 | 0:03:53 | |
smoothing the mud on the wall very carefully. | 0:03:53 | 0:03:57 | |
-I think the wall is very strong now. -I think so too! | 0:04:00 | 0:04:05 | |
There. Finished. | 0:04:18 | 0:04:21 | |
Time to wash their muddy hands in water. | 0:04:21 | 0:04:25 | |
-Bye! -Bye, Mamakeyanta. It was lovely to meet you! | 0:04:25 | 0:04:30 | |
