seed song

The cyclic nature of plant growth is dramatized in "Seed Song". It reveals the miracle of nature as a seed grows into a fruit bearing tree. The picturization of the whole process will not just introduce young readers or listeners to the plant cycle but also delight them. Along with the central theme of the story, which is written in verse form, the days of the week and basic weather elements are also introduced. The art based activity pages at the end of the story relate to plant parts. These will serve not just as a reinforcement of what children have read but also help them develop fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination. Most importantly, they will have fun as they cut, paste, colour and paint. The final activity encourages children to grow their own plant. There's nothing more thrilling for children than to watch their seeds grow into plants.
