I recently had the heartwarming pleasure of watching my daughter on stage in her school recital of “The Little Plant.” They did it as a whole section and they wore this cute little plant costume with their faces as flowers.
This is how the poem goes….
The Little Plant
by Kate Brown.
In the heart of a seed,
Buried deep, so deep,
A dear little plant
Lay fast asleep.
“Wake!” said the sunshine,
“And creep to the light.”
“Wake!” said the voice
Of the raindrops bright.
The little plant heard,
And it rose to see
What the wonderful
Outside world might be.
“The Little Plant” is a charming story about a tiny sprout who longs to reach for the sunlight. Facing challenges and obstacles along the way, the little plant perseveres, ultimately discovering its own unique strength and potential. My daughter really had fun wearing the costume and reciting the poem with her classmates.
More than just a performance, “The Little Plant” became a learning experience for my daughter. She embraced the collaborative spirit working with her classmates and teachers. Seeing her perform filled me with a sense of pride and gratitude.
This experience reminded me of the magic of theater, the power of storytelling, and the importance of nurturing our children’s talents and passions. So, if you have a little performer in your life, encourage them to embrace the stage, let their creativity bloom, and remember, every seed holds the potential to become a magnificent flower.
