For thousands of years, people have been fascinated by the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, like the Great Pyramid of Giza and the Hanging Gardens of Babylon. These were extraordinary achievements of engineering and creativity. More recently, the New Seven Wonders of the World, such as the Great Wall of China and Machu Picchu, celebrate global marvels of beauty and history.
Nature also gets its share of recognition! The Seven Natural Wonders of the World include incredible sites like the Grand Canyon, Mount Everest, and the Great Barrier Reef. These breathtaking places showcase the planet’s natural beauty and diversity.
But what about your own city? Every town, big or small, has its own wonders—whether it’s a historic monument, a quirky museum, or even the best ice cream shop in town! By recognizing the unique spots in your city, you’ll see it through fresh eyes and celebrate what makes your community special.
Your Task:
Identify Existing Wonders
-Think about your city or town. What are its most famous or special places?
-Create a list of up to 7 “wonders.” This could include landmarks, natural spots, popular hangouts, or even hidden gems.
Dream Up New Wonders
-If you can’t think of 7 wonders, brainstorm new ideas! What would make your city stand out?
-Examples: A massive playground shaped like your city’s mascot, a futuristic library, or a park with glowing trails.
Bonus
-Give each of your wonders a fun name, like “The Pizza Palace” or “The Floating Forest.” Provide a drawing if you have extra time!
