Fovant Badges

Have you ever seen a badge that someone wears on their clothes? Well, a Fovant badge is something like that. It's a picture that is painted on a hill in Fovant, which is a place in England. These badges are really big and they are made by digging up the grass on the hill to make the picture.

The pictures on the badges are usually related to the military, which means things like tanks, airplanes, and soldiers. They were made during the First World War, which was a really big war that happened a long time ago.
