​​说起孩子们居住的小区，就不能不提到谈心墙、吃风筝的树和学校教学楼啦。这些角色虽然没有人物们那么个性鲜明，但是它们静静地站在背景里或给孩子们提供了吐露心声的地点、或者自身存在给平静的生活添加了些许波澜，或者仅仅是安静地聆听孩子们的抱怨（并以一砖一瓦作为回应），渐渐地也融入到了孩子们的生活中去，成为了花生村的“地标”。

The Neighborhood Wall 12/25/1950
Charlie brown always has a lot on his mind, and he spends a lot of time talking about his hopes and fears with his friends, often at the Neighborhood Wall. The conveniently placed waist-high brick wall is the perfect height for Charlie Brown to lean against when he’s discussing theology with Linus, anxieties with Lucy, or sharing grandfather stories with Franklin.
查理·布朗总是心事重重，他经常与朋友们在谈心墙边畅谈他的希望与恐惧。在查理布朗与莱纳斯交流神学、与露西交流焦虑、以及与富兰克林分享爷爷的故事时这堵只及腰高的墙为他提供了很好的倚靠。

Peanuts was always a very introspective strip, and the Neighborhood Wall served as the ideal venue for philosophy and thoughtful conversation. Although scholars and fans found Peanuts to be a very profound, deeply philosophical comic, Charles Schulz himself was very modest about the strip and its message. “I never thought about the strip and its message. I never thought of myself as having any writing ability at all. I never thought of myself as having any kind of philosophical approach, I really know nothing about psychology or psychiatry or philosophy or anything like that.”
《花生漫画》关注内省，谈心墙也很好地起到了谈论哲学和富有深度的对话的作用。尽管学者和粉丝们认为《花生漫画》是深奥富有哲理的，但查尔斯·舒尔茨本人却对这部漫画及它所传递的思想表现得十分谦虚。“我从来没有想过漫画和它所传达的信息。我从未认为自己有任何写作能力。我从来没有想过自己有任何哲学方法，我真的对心理学、精神病学或哲学之类的东西一无所知。”

The Kite-Eating Tree 04/12/1956
The kite eating tree is native to the fields near Charlie Brown’s home. Unlike other plants, the Kite-Eating Tree has a diet consisting entirely of kites flown by Charlie Brown. Although it seems to have a distinct preference for brand-new kites, it has been known to settle for used kites when necessary, and has even eaten raw toy pianos on very rare occasions (sorry, Schroeder).
吃风筝的树长在查理·布朗家不远的田野里。与其他植物不同，吃风筝的树仅靠捕食查理·布朗放飞的风筝为生。尽管它更偏好新风筝，但必要时也可以接受旧风筝，甚至在极其罕见的场合下它也会食用玩具钢琴（抱歉，史洛德）。

Charlie Brown’s lack of kite-flying prowess stems from Charles Schulz’s own difficulties with the hobby. “I have never been a very successful kite flyer and have used the excuse that I never lived where there were good areas to fly kites. When I was growing up, we always lived in residential areas which had too many trees and too many telephone wires. Recollections of those handicaps inspired Charlie Brown’s troubles with kite flying. As I grew older and tried to fly kites for my own children, I discovered that I still had the same problems. I observed that when a kite becomes caught in a tall tree, it is irretrievable and gradually disappears over a period of several weeks. Now obviously the kite had to go someplace, so it seemed to me that the tree must be eating it. This is how the series developed about Charlie Brown’s violent battles with his local “kite-eating tree”.
查理·布朗不会放风筝的原因是查尔斯·舒尔茨自身对这项爱好就不是很擅长。“我放风筝从来就没有很成功过，我总以住的地方没有能够好好放风筝的空地为借口。小时候，我们的住宅区有太多的树和电话线，对于这些不利因素的回忆激发了我对查理·布朗不擅长放风筝的创作灵感。在年老后与孩子一同放风筝时，我发现自己依旧在这项运动上遇到了麻烦。我观察到，当一只风筝缠在了树上后，它就再也拿不下来了，经过几周它便会自行消失。很显然它必须有个去处，所以对我而言就是树吃了它。这就是查理·布朗与花生村的‘吃风筝的树’之间的惨烈战争的创作过程了。”

The School 08/31/1974
Sally is not an enthusiastic student, and every year she dreads the end of summer and the start of another school year. She often voices her frustrations to the School itself, and the building is always ready to offer a sympathetic ear – or brick, as the case maybe. The School is a philosophical building, and it often reflects on how its life might have been different if it had been an airline terminal or a disco.
莎莉对学习并不是很上心，每年她都害怕夏末和新学期的到来。她经常和教学楼本楼表达她的不满，而教学楼也会细心聆听——好吧，也许它只有砖块没有耳朵，但你明白这个意思。教学楼是一栋很有哲学的建筑，它经常思考如果它是一个机场航站楼或迪斯科舞厅的话，它的楼生将会有什么样的不同。

Sally’s first school collapses unexpectedly one night, possibly from nerves or exhaustion, and Sally and Charlie Brown have to enroll in another building on the other side of the town. She immediately strikes up a friendship with her new school, even though Lucy and other kids don’t understand why Sally talks to buildings. As the school itself says, “It’s a living!”
也许由于神经紧张和疲惫所致，莎莉的第一个学校教学楼突然在一夜之间坍塌了，于是莎莉和查理·布朗必须要转学到花生村另一端的另一栋学校学习。莎莉几乎立刻便与新学校成为了朋友，即便露西和其他孩子都不明白为什么她总是对着教学楼说话。就像学校自己所言：“这就是人生嘛！”
