CBeebies Blog: Little Human Planet - Living in Ethiopia and North Canada:
Elen Producer
Little Human Planet follows the lives of young children from around the world, giving a glimpse to our CBeebies viewers of how their counterparts live wherever they are. It's a celebration of what makes children different and what makes them the same around the world in a colourful and often surprising voyage of discovery.
During this programme we travel to two very different locations around the world.Firstly, the high Simien mountains of Ethiopia where people live higher than anywhere in Europe or North America. It is on these mountains we get a glimpse into the extraordinary life of six year old Maza. and her family and also see their home made of straw and mud. We then travel to the freezing coldand Arctic conditions of North Canada to meet six year old Kirima.She is wrapped up warm as she helps and watches her family build an igloo. This programme reflects two six year old girls with two very different lives.
