<h1>🧒 A Kid's Day: Then and Now</h1>
<h2>Week 5 • Thursday • Comparing Your Life to an Egyptian Kid's</h2>
<section class="lesson-section">
<h3>📖 Reading Time</h3>
<div class="reading-box">
<p>Let's follow Meri, a made-up boy living in ancient Egypt 4,000 years ago. Meri wakes at sunrise in his mud-brick house. Breakfast is bread and dates. Then it's chore time: he fetches water and feeds the goats. Most kids like Meri did not go to school — only a few boys trained to be scribes did.</p>
<p>In the afternoon, Meri swims in a safe spot in the Nile and plays ball with his friends. His sister Nefret helps their mother bake bread and weave cloth. At night, the family eats fish and vegetables together and tells stories under the stars.</p>
<p>Your day is different: you go to school, read books, and maybe watch shows. But some things match: chores, playing with friends, family dinners, and bedtime stories. Kids have been kids for thousands of years!</p>
