On all seven continents, deserts can be found. One-third of the surface on this planet is made up of deserts (also known as arid areas) and semi-deserts (also known as semi-arid areas).
The majority of deserts are found in polar regions, subtropical areas close to the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn, and other subtropical areas. Arid regions, like deserts, are dry places. Arid, which means dry and is derived from the Latin aridus, is an environment where just very few plants can live.
On Earth, the desert regions are home to almost a billion people. Egypt's Cairo and Peru's Lima are the two biggest cities in the desert. A place is considered a desert if it gets less than 25 centimeters (10 inches) of rainfall annually. There is relatively little precipitation and water in any desert or dry region. However, rain that does fall in the desert typically comes as heavy downpours that can cause severe flooding.
There are both hot and cold deserts, including the Sahara Desert, the Gobi Desert, and the deserts of the polar regions. In the deserts, there are significant daily temperature changes. Typically, during the hours of bright sunlight, the temperature is very hot, while at night, when heat can simply disappear, the temperature is very cold. The daytime average temperature is 38°C, while the nighttime low is 3.9°C (at night).
Desert-dwelling animals and plants have developed environmental adaptations. Animals, like the rabbit or the fennel fox, typically are nocturnally active and reside underground in holes.
Some animals, like camels, retain water in their curves or get their fluid intake from the mist in deserts around the shore. Desert plants frequently have spines, such as cactus, to fend off herbivores—animals that consume plants—and deep, waxy roots that allow them to hold more water.

Children gain much from coloring pages, especially in terms of focus and hand-eye coordination. This occurs because handling crayons, selecting colors, coloring various characters, and even polishing crayons can all aid in developing excellent hand-eye coordination in preschoolers.
Coloring pages that have a defined area for coloring force kids to use their hand-eye coordination as they build their coloring skills.
Children get the chance to show their creativity by coloring. It enables students to consider the various color mixes they could use to produce their own distinctive image. Incorrect coloring or choosing to color outside of the lines are not reasons to become unhappy with kids. Children should be taught how to color in a range of directions and complete in blank spaces.
Coloring encourages creativity and an awareness of aesthetic variations, irrespective of whether the user stays within the lines. Coloring may encourage creative thinking, encourage brainstorming, and teach kids to organically come up with fresh ideas.
