| Time to allocate (mins) | 20 |
| Outcome | Cubs to design the city layout based on clues |
| Resources | Paper or chalk or boxes or lego |
| Instructions | Hand out large grid paper (or chalk outside). Each team receives “clues” about where to place features of an Indus Valley city (e.g., The Great Bath is in the center, the granary is near the river, houses are in rows). Cubs work together to draw or build a map of an Indus Valley city. Variation: Use Lego/blocks for 3D building. The city was divided into two parts: the Citadel (for administrative and religious purposes) and the Lower Town (residential area). Streets were laid out in a grid pattern, intersecting at right angles. Houses were made of standardized baked bricks and had private wells and bathrooms. Great Bath: One of the most iconic structures at Mohenjo-Daro. It was a large, rectangular tank made of baked bricks and waterproofed with bitumen. Likely used for ritual bathing or religious ceremonies. Drainage System: Mohenjo-Daro had an advanced underground drainage system with covered drains. Each house was connected to the main drainage system, ensuring proper sanitation. Granaries: Large granaries have been discovered, indicating the importance of agriculture and food storage. |
