Plant, water, and be gentle with living things.

Warm-up, learn, try it together, practice, then a quick check. 10 minutes or less.

For grown-ups

Your child helps plants and animals: watering, planting, and being gentle. We suggest reading it together.

What children learn in Level 51

Plants and animals are alive. We can help them.
Water a thirsty plant. Plant a seed. Put out a bird feeder.
Be gentle. Don't pull leaves, chase animals, or step on flowers.
Your turn! Kai waters the garden. Does that help? Yes!
Try it with a grown-up! Water a plant together, or watch a bird without scaring it.
