How Houses Work

S01 E05 • Monday, May 10, 2021 • May 10

Join Maddie on an adventure around the Eco Village to discover how we can build houses in different ways. Using a map to find the way, Maddie discovers how houses can be built using recycled materials and how energy can be harnessed from the sun and wind to use in the home. We explore the different parts of the house, from the strong walls that help the house stay upright to the windows that let us see outside and let the light in. Maddie uses her special camera to show solar panels on a roof, and we learn how we can build houses that help keep warm when it’s cold and cool when it’s hot.
