Description
Nyumbani Kwetu, which translates to “Our Home,” is a Swahili children’s book that serves as a core educational resource approved by the Kenya Institute of Curriculum Development (KICD). The book, a popular storybook in primary schools, tells the tale of a family’s life and the various members and community figures who contribute to their well-being. It is designed to teach young readers about the importance of family, cooperation, and the different roles people play in a household and a community. The narrative emphasizes valuable cultural values such as respecting elders, helping with chores, and the warmth of a loving home environment, making it a key text for character development and social studies in the new Competency-Based Curriculum.
