The Magical Garden of Surprises

Welcome to your own Magical Garden! Here, plants grow very fast and bear surprising fruits.

Your Mission:
Care for three mysterious seeds and discover what magical plant grows from each one.

Step 1: Planting (Nature & Patience):
- You have 3 seeds: A shiny blue one, a red one with stripes, and a golden one that buzzes.
- Dig three small holes in the soft soil.
- Put a seed in each hole and cover them with care.

Step 2: Care (Responsibility):
- Plants need two very important things: WATER and SUN.
- Water the seeds with your magic watering can. "Glug, glug, glug!"
- Call Mr. Sun to warm them up. "Mr. Sun, please shine here!"

Step 3: Growth (Sequences & Sizes):
- Look! Something is sprouting.
- First comes a small stem (Small).
- Then big leaves grow (Medium).
- Now they are giant plants! (Large).
- Which one grew the fastest?

Step 4: The Magical Harvest (Imagination):
- It's time to see the fruits!
- From the BLUE seed grew... A tree of ice pops that never melt!
- From the RED seed grew... A bush that gives rubber balls that bounce by themselves!
- From the GOLDEN seed grew... A flower that sings lullabies!

Step 5: Sharing (Generosity):
- You have many magical fruits. What will you do with them?
- Give an ice pop to your best friend.
- Play with the rubber balls with your brother or sister.
- Listen to the flower's song before sleeping.

Suggested Activities:
- Plant a real seed (bean or lentil) in a cup with wet cotton.
- Draw your own invented magical plant. What fruit would it bear?
- Go out to the garden or park and look for leaves of different shapes.
