Come on Katherine! Let's play a game and pretend it's the Nile River!
I don't see what's so important about the Nile.
Well, the Nile River deposits silt. This gives the land fertile soil.
But that's only one thing. Surely not enough to give the Nile River so much fame!
That's right Katherine! the Nile also has fresh water, which makes it easier to fish. I'm glad you girls are talking about this!
Thanks mom! I also know that the Nile encouraged human settlement!
Yeah!
Thanks Reya! I guess I learn something new every day!
The last reason is the vegetation, which was rare in the dry desert. They used the plants to make baskets, handles, and more.
Now I know that The Nile River gives the land fertile soil, has fresh water so you can fish, encouraged human settlement, and had a lot of vegetation!
