Does it snow in Africa?
 

Africa is often thought of as a very hot place, and in many parts of the continent, it is! But in spite of having many high temperatures, there are some places in Africa where it snows!

Most of the places in Africa that receive snow are mountains, because the weather is often colder in these high-up places. Some of the countries with tall, sometimes-snowy mountains include Morocco, Algeria, Lesotho, Tanzania, and South Africa.

Do you know where these countries are?? Look for them on a map, and then see if you can spot some of their mountain ranges, too!
