Narration Track
Narrated by a “little girl”: “Hello, my name is Lyssa. I haven’t fully learned how to talk yet. The voice you’re hearing is the voice in my head. And I’ve got something that I really want to communicate and express!
I… love… parks! I mean, I really love parks. I got diagnosed with autism a year ago and I crave stimulation. Parks are a great way for me to release and learn how to express all that’s inside of me. Yet I got bored of going to the same park that was close to my home in my neighborhood. So my dad went on the Internet and found several unknown parks around the area I live in Dublin, Ohio, USA. We found and discovered these parks on GoogleMaps. There are some parks that can be seen from the road. There are parks that you can hear about from word of mouth. And then there are the parks that you can actually locate and find by using satellite maps on the Internet! This is a documentary exploration video short about finding new parks that are not visible through road signs. You can only discover these hidden, (secret) parks through looking them up on GoogleMaps! And then I had my parents take me to them to explore, discover, and play! Come join me!! Let me show you all the places you can go! Let’s play and play and play!”
“Now look up the ones nearby you! Find the secret (and now not-so-secret) parks in your neighborhood. Go ahead, play, and enjoy!”
Epilogue: Two Years Later: “The more I explored, the more I grew. And the more I grew, the more I could express myself… even through these very words. I may not be able to speak yet, but I am learning and growing. Playing allows me to express myself and to play with others and learn from how they talk. Quite simply, parks helped me find my voice through play.”

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Wales (Welsh: Cymru [ˈkəmri] (listen)) is a country that is part of the United Kingdom and the island of Great Britain. It is bordered by England to the east, the Irish Sea to the north and west, and the Bristol Channel to the south. It had a population in 2011 of 3,063,456 and has a total area of 20,779 km2 (8,023 sq mi). Wales has over 1,680 miles (2,700 km) of coastline and is largely mountainous, with its higher peaks in the north and central areas, including Snowdon (Yr Wyddfa), its highest summit. The country lies within the north temperate zone and has a changeable, maritime climate.
Welsh national identity emerged among the Britons after the Roman withdrawal from Britain in the 5th century, and Wales is regarded as one of the modern Celtic nations. Llywelyn ap Gruffudd's death in 1282 marked the completion of Edward I of England's conquest of Wales, though Owain Glyndŵr briefly restored independence to Wales in the early 15th century. The whole of Wales was annexed by England and incorporated within the English legal system under the Laws in Wales Acts 1535 and 1542. Distinctive Welsh politics developed in the 19th century. Welsh liberalism, exemplified in the early 20th century by Lloyd George, was displaced by the growth of socialism and the Labour Party. Welsh national feeling grew over the century; Plaid Cymru was formed in 1925 and the Welsh Language Society in 1962. Established under the Government of Wales Act 1998, the National Assembly for Wales holds responsibility for a range of devolved policy matters.
At the dawn of the Industrial Revolution, development of the mining and metallurgical industries transformed the country from an agricultural society into an industrial nation; the South Wales Coalfield's exploitation caused a rapid expansion of Wales' population. Two-thirds of the population live in South Wales, including Cardiff, Swansea, Newport and the nearby valleys. Now that the country's traditional extractive and heavy industries have gone or are in decline, Wales' economy depends on the public sector, light and service industries and tourism.
Although Wales closely shares its political and social history with the rest of Great Britain, and a majority of the population in most areas speaks English as a first language, the country has retained a distinct cultural identity and is officially bilingual. Over 560,000 Welsh language speakers live in Wales, and the language is spoken by a majority of the population in parts of the north and wes ...
