he world is filled with many different people and animals, languages, cultures and holiday traditions. Everyone has day and night, 24 hours, days, weeks, months, years and the four seasons, spring, summer, fall and winter. All of these things depend on the sun that our planet spins around daily and each year. We do not all have daytime and night time or the seasons at the same time. Some places are usually always cold like, the North and South poles. Some places are hot, most of the whole year.
