On a cold snowy day, people sometimes say, “it’s arctic weather.”
In winter, the arctic is covered in snow and the days are dark.
In summer, the snow melts and the sunshine stays out during the night.
The first people to make parkas were probably the Inuit who live in the arctic regions of Canada and Alaska.
These Inuit children look very snug and warm in their parkas.
Inuit parkas are usually made of animal fur and skin. It is important to keep warm in cold weather.
Inuit people sometimes use dog sleds to travel when they go hunting.
Inuit rely on animals to help them. These dogs pull the sled.
The dogs are travelling across frozen water but running will keep them warm.
Many birds nest in the Arctic, such as puffins, terns and penguins.
