ANIMALS
Animals are fascinating creatures that come in all shapes and sizes.There are different types of animals such as-
Domestic Animals: Domestic animals are animals that live with people, like pets! They are our friends who stay in our homes or on farms. Dogs, cats, rabbits, and chickens are examples of domestic animals. We take care of them by giving them food, water, and love. They are special because they are a part of our family.

Wild Animals: Wild animals are animals that live in nature, like in forests, jungles, and oceans. They don’t live with people like pets do. Lions, tigers, elephants, and giraffes are examples of wild animals. We can see them in books, on TV, or sometimes in places called zoos, where they have a safe home to live in.

Reptiles: Reptiles are a group of animals that have scaly skin and are cold-blooded, which means they rely on the sun to warm up their bodies. They can live on land or in water. Some examples of reptiles are turtles, snakes, lizards, and crocodiles. Reptiles are fascinating because they come in many shapes and sizes, and they have special ways of moving and surviving in their habitat.
Amphibians: Amphibians are a group of animals that can live both on land and in water. They start their lives as eggs in water and then turn into tadpoles with tails. As they grow, they develop legs and lungs, which help them breathe air. Frogs, toads, and salamanders are examples of amphibians. Amphibians are special because they can explore both the land and the water.
