“Carnival has already put on a mask,
He opened the door with a bang, with a bang!
He rushed into the room like a whirlwind,
In what? “In a carnival costume”

Colored pencils when I ask for them
They will paint everything I want!”

We plant trees twice a year because this is the rhythm dictated by nature. In accordance with the law of nature, preschoolers from the Private Nursery and Kindergarten “Świat Dziecka” in Siewierz participated in the tree planting campaign twice in 2023. It was a spring and autumn campaign. The workshops were organized as part of the project “Little with age, but big with eco-heart” project number: 2022-3-PL01-ESC30-SOL-000097905. The autumn tree planting campaign took place on November 15, 2023. The aim of the workshops was to teach children how to care for plants and awaken their interest in nature. The classes consisted of two parts: theoretical and practical.

After a presentation about ecology and plants, children from the groups: Pixies, Smurfs and Dots reached for shovels, seedlings, watering cans and started planting trees.

Preschoolers and their caregivers transplanted plants from pots into the ground. The trees were planted around the playground located in the kindergarten. They will provide protection against excessive sun rays and will be an educational base for recognizing the family of trees. This year, preschoolers planted spruces, pines and maples. The little gardeners were very happy with the task entrusted to them. The workshops were summarized in the words of the kindergarten teacher:

“Planting trees plays a big role for the environment in which we live. Trees improve air quality, shape the climate, retain rainwater and provide a valuable raw material.”
