🌙 – evening in the village

In the evening, she takes a simple bath. She uses water from a well or a river. After bathing, she helps her mother or grandmother prepare the evening meal. Dinner is the main time for the family. They eat together and talk. This is a happy and important time.

After dinner, she has a little free time. She plays simple games outside with other children. They use sticks, rocks, or small toys. She also talks with neighbors on the village road. Sometimes, she studies her schoolwork by a small lamp. There are not many books, and extra lessons are rare.

She goes to bed early, around 8:00 PM or 9:00 PM. Her life is simple but full of learning and family love. She learns to be responsible and to help her family every day.
