A Tree's Life (grades 1-3)
Take an in-depth look at the life of a tree while we investigate the different stages of a tree's life cycle. Learn, with props, about the parts of a tree beginning with a seed and how it travels. Find out what a "tree cookie" is, and how it reveals the past history of the tree
