We are going on a safari holiday to Kenya to see some of the wild animals that live there, but before we go we need to think about what we need to pack.
Can you help us?
What will we need to think about when we are packing for our trip?

When packing for a trip you need to think about what the weather will be like so you pack the right clothes. Let’s look at some photos of Kenya to see if there are any clues about what the weather is like there...
Is it a hot or a cold place? Is it a wet or a dry place? Is the weather always the same?

Different places in the world have different climates, depending where in the world they are. The globe has an imaginary line around its middle called the equator.
North Pole South Pole Equator
Countries near the equator are usually the hottest countries. Countries near the North and South Poles are the coldest countries.

Where is Kenya on the map? How close is it to the equator?
What does this tell you about the climate in Kenya?

Kenya is on the equator which means it is a hot country. It stays hot all year round and doesn’t have seasons like we do. Instead of hot and cold seasons, they have wet and dry seasons. The dry seasons are from January to February and June to October. The wet seasons are from March to May and November to December.

The dry season is slightly colder than the wet season but daytime temperatures are still hotter than most days in the UK. The areas by the coast in Kenya are hotter than areas further inland.

Even though the days are hot in Kenya, temperatures in the evening and early in the morning can be cool. Why do you think the temperature at night is cooler than during the day?
