You can also plant at home or in the garden: Dig a hole in the ground, place the seedling inside, tighten the soil around it, and water it. Not sure how to plant? Follow the instructions in the book…

It is a good idea to demonstrate with body movements how a seedling grows: bend low, straighten up slowly, stand on your tiptoes and finally, raise your arms up and sideways.

“How do you plant a seedling? Neither fast nor slow.” You can have fun with quickly or slowly: “Now we will walk… quickly. And now… slowly!” “Let’s roll our hands… slowly, and let’s roll our hands… quickly!” What else can you do quickly and slowly?

The tree grew, as did Rebecca. And how about you? Perhaps you would enjoy watching videos and looking at photographs to see how both children and parents have grown and changed. You could even discuss the kinds of actions that your children were able or unable to do in the past.
