Tummy Bird

The robin is a bird that has psychological traits which are entirely its own. It has, at most seasons, absolute trust in man. It is the bird of the homestead, always ready to attend the garden worker, perch upon the handle of the spade the moment it is left or pick a worm from the ground.

Encourage the young generation to enjoy nature at its best, to explore their own “piece” of garden and to notice something new each day. Find out the creatures that inhabit this environment and appreciate their role; find out all the plants that grow and what they produce to aid the existence of man.

Feel happy and calm, and have fun as you work, rest and play in this amazing ecosystem.

Do they value and take care of their “find”?
