Growth of a Tree, by Meish Goldish
Planting a tree is an unforgettable practical experience for any kids. We keep our children attuned to many little gardening projects we do. Few days ago, when we've packed the outdoor bonsai and the seedlings in insulated packs for outside wintering, we started to talk again about the changing colors of autumn leaves (one of our preferred themes those days).
Then the discussion did take a new direction: what poems and songs they know about trees.
We had fun reciting or singing together many pieces. This one was our favorite.
I hope you enjoy it, too.
"Growth of a Tree"
by Meish Goldish.
I'm a little maple, oh so small,
In years ahead, I'll grow so tall!
With a lot of water, sun, and air,
I will soon be way up there!
Deep inside the soil my roots are found,
Drinking the water underground.
Water from the roots my trunk receives,
Then my trunk starts making leaves.
As I start to climb in altitude,
Leaves on my branches will make food.
Soon my trunk and branches will grow wide,
And I'll grow more bark outside!
I will be a maple very tall,
Losing my leaves when it is fall.
But when it is spring, new leaves will show.
How do trees grow? Now you know!

The Secret Life of Plants
There are many studies suggesting that plants do indeed react to music. Despite those facts that the effect of sound waves make plants to grow healthier and larger, I'm sure our plants are sensitive to music :-)
We like to listen music and maybe this is one of the best reason why our plants feel good, the scent of their foliage is so pronounced and their shoots are growing more quickly ;-)
Long time ago I was listening Stevie Wonder’s album ‘Journey through the Secret Life of Plants’. Also, I have watched again ‘The Secret Life of Plants’ documentary realized in 1979, for some time now. This documentary, directed by Walon Green, was based on " The Secret Life of Plants" book by Peter Tompkins and Christopher Bird.
Well, I saw it on TV for the first time and remains one of my favorite documentary. Thanks to Joetuuper to share it on his youtube channel. If you have some time, you should see it by yourself.
I'm still in awe, after years and years...I'm sure you're really gonna enjoy it, too.
