People started living together in one place because it made life easier. At first, people lived like animals, they moved around and hunted or gathered food wherever they went. But then, some groups found a good spot near water or fertile land, and they stayed there. Over time, more people came to live with them. This is how the first city began: a group of people living together in one place for a long time.
Examples
- A family plants seeds near a river instead of moving every year.
- Children play with neighbors, and parents trade food.
- People build homes out of mud bricks to live together.
