Welcome to BBCe!
We take you back in time because this week it is the childhood programme برنامج عن الطفولة.
We ask people in London and Cairo "What were you like as a child?" ما هي الصفات التي رافقتك في سنوات الطفولة؟
Here are some of the answers we get:
Naughty
شقي
Good
حسن السلوك
Friendly
ودود
Hungry!
جائع!
A bit pampered
مدلل بعض الشيء
A spoilt child
مدلل لغاية
Really sensible
متعقل
I liked creative things
ميال للأنشطة الإبداعية
Karim and Cath talk about words we use to describe children.
If they behave well we might say they are as good as gold جيد جودة الذهب.
However, if they are naughty we might describe children as little monkeys قردة صغيرة, or if you need something stronger brats أشقياء or spoilt brats أشقياء ومدللون.
This is very negative however, so be careful!
