Strand (swamp)

Strand is a big wet area like a giant puddle or a small lake. It is called a swamp. Swamps are like big puddles where water is there all the time. These places are really important for animals, like birds, fish, and bugs. They are also really important for people who use them for fishing, hunting, or getting food.

Swamps can be found in many different places around the world. They are usually filled with trees and plants that love to grow in water. These trees and plants create homes for various animals such as alligators, frogs, and ducks.

It is important to take care of swamps because they are home to many living things. People can help keep swamps clean and healthy by not throwing trash in them or polluting the water. By taking care of swamps, we can make sure that animals and humans can enjoy them for a long time!
