Niagara Falls

The Niagara River connects Lake Erie to Lake Ontario.

An idea to try
On another sheet, draw water three ways: still, flowing quickly and falling.
For the adult reading along
A little more to discover
Horseshoe Falls is part of the group of waterfalls known as Niagara Falls. Water and erosion reshape this landscape over long periods. The scene combines features seen from the Canadian bank. The large cloud represents suspended water droplets, not smoke.
