Why this harbor is so cheerful

At the top, a firework glows like a sun with a face, surrounded by little smiling stars. On the left stands a friendly lighthouse with a pier and several small boats with faces. Colorful cottages line the shore on the right. Down in the water the firework is mirrored – a great space for shades of blue.

Why do harbors have lighthouses?

A lighthouse helps ships find the safe way into the harbor at night. A bright light turns at the top and can be seen far out at sea. Each lighthouse flashes in its own pattern, so sailors know exactly where they are. In many harbor towns New Year's fireworks look especially magical because the lights reflect on the water. Ships in port often sound their horns at midnight.

Ideas with the harbor picture

Name the boats and tell where they will sail in the new year. For a mirror effect, color the sky strongly and use the same colors very lightly in the water.
