From Seed to Fruit for Kids

Seven episodes on how a plant is born, for children aged 6 to 8, hosted by Mig, a five-year-old boy who discovers everything alongside the child. The course is not a list of parts: it is a WHEEL of seven stops that closes back on itself, seed, root, stem, leaf, flower, bee, fruit, and inside the fruit there are seeds again. Each episode lights one stop. The seed is opened first: a hard shell, a tiny plant asleep and the food for its first days, needing water, warmth and air but no light at all, which is why we bury it. Then the root that holds on and drinks, the stem with straws running both ways inside it, the leaf that makes food out of sunlight and lets out the air we breathe, the flower that is a poster printed for a visitor, the bee who does an enormous job without knowing it, and the fruit, which is the flower itself, changed. Every size is compared against a child, and the smallest of them all, the seed and the bee, need a magnifier to be seen at that scale.
