Song of the Week

Un día en el parque jugando estaba
¡Con mis amigos de Sff!
Miré hacia el suelo, vi algo pequeño
La semillita yo vi pasar
Yo la tome con mucho cuidado
Y en una taza con amor la sembré,
Con tierra y agua creció mi plantita
Y muchas flores yo vi nacer.
Cuida tú alrededor,
A las plantitas respeta,
Por un mundo mejor cuida la naturaleza

               
           Poems

Poem #1
Mi plantita es muy bonita
Yo la tengo que regar
Cada día crece un poco
Por la luz que el sol le da.

Poem #2
Semillita semillita
Que con agua y luz del sol
Te convertiste en una plantita
Con muchas hojas y una flor.


 
Riddles


Verde soy
Huelo muy bien
Crezco con flores , plantas
Y árboles también
Las hojas
