The Netherlands

Programme Outline

The programme includes a quiz about life and customs in the Netherlands. Two Dutch children, Sacha and Kjeld, (pronounced ‘Sasha’ and ‘Kyeld’) present different aspects of the country and the lifestyles of its people. There is information about land reclamation, housing, school life, favourite foods and hobbies. We look at typical landscapes and at urban environments. We discover that much of the country is below sea level. Issues such as over-population, ethnic diversity and pollution are also covered.
