Cities grow just like people do. At first, there are only a few houses, and everyone knows each other. As more people come to live there, they build bigger roads, more buildings, and even schools and shops. Over time, the city gets bigger and busier, it becomes a living thing that keeps changing.
Examples
- A small village adds a few more houses each year until it becomes a town.
- People build a train station, so more people move in near it.
- A city grows from one side to the other as new neighborhoods are created.
