0:00:17 > 0:00:19I'm Cuba and I'm seven years old.

0:00:19 > 0:00:23I've been for a walk and now I'm heading home.

0:00:27 > 0:00:30I live on this canal boat with my mummy and daddy,

0:00:30 > 0:00:34my sister Mia and my cats Tabby and Slinky.

0:00:34 > 0:00:36I've always lived on this boat.

0:00:36 > 0:00:38This is the front room.

0:00:39 > 0:00:42This is Mia's and mine's drawing.

0:00:43 > 0:00:45And that's the doll house.

0:00:45 > 0:00:48And we're going to go in the kitchen.

0:00:52 > 0:00:56This is where we make some food, like soup.

0:00:57 > 0:01:00And this is all the fruit.

0:01:00 > 0:01:04Now we're going to go through to the bedrooms.

0:01:04 > 0:01:09This is my bed, this is where all my toys are hanging up.

0:01:09 > 0:01:13The best thing of living on a boat is moving around.

0:01:13 > 0:01:16Most days there's something new to see.

0:01:17 > 0:01:21Put that in there. Really gently. I'll help you.

0:01:21 > 0:01:23'I like cooking with my mum.

0:01:23 > 0:01:26'Today, we're making gingerbread men.'

0:01:26 > 0:01:27Really squish it.

0:01:27 > 0:01:31'I love getting my fingers messy.

0:01:31 > 0:01:33'And cutting out the shapes.'

0:01:33 > 0:01:35Push it down really hard.

0:01:36 > 0:01:41'Our cooker is a bit like a fire. It burns wood to make things hot

0:01:41 > 0:01:46'and it's always running, so it's nice and warm in the winter.

0:01:48 > 0:01:52'As we live on the canal, we don't have a big back garden,

0:01:52 > 0:01:54'but I don't mind.

0:01:55 > 0:01:59'Because sometimes we moor our boat right next to the park.

0:01:59 > 0:02:02'So I get to run around there.

0:02:05 > 0:02:08'Today, me and Mia are having a race.'

0:02:08 > 0:02:09Hey!

0:02:11 > 0:02:14'I love wildlife.

0:02:14 > 0:02:17'I get to see lots of animals here on the canal.

0:02:18 > 0:02:21'Now I'm going pond dipping in the stream.

0:02:26 > 0:02:30'We're using a net and a glass to look at things in the water.'

0:02:30 > 0:02:33Look, see, stop there, Mia. Look right in front of you

0:02:33 > 0:02:36in the shallow bit. Do you see them?

0:02:36 > 0:02:38Come and have a look, Cuba, quick!

0:02:38 > 0:02:40'And we found a tadpole.

0:02:42 > 0:02:44'One day it will turn into a frog.'

0:02:44 > 0:02:45Well done.

0:02:47 > 0:02:51'Outside our boat, we grow flowers and herbs.'

0:02:51 > 0:02:53Needs some more water.

0:02:53 > 0:02:55'And I help look after them.

0:02:55 > 0:03:00'I love watering the flowers and seeing them grow.'

0:03:01 > 0:03:03I'm Cuba and this is what I do.
