The Secret Life of a Seed continues!In this shortened Wild & Wonder episode, we return underground with Plaira, a tiny seed with a big dream: to grow up toward the sun. But before Plaira can reach the light, she discovers something surprising; sometimes growing up begins by growing down.With help from a gentle worm, Plaira learns how roots help a plant drink, hold on, and stay steady when the world above feels bright, windy, and new. Young listeners will explore roots, soil, perseverance, and the idea that we can be flexible and strong at the same time.This episode includes a nature story, a quiet reflection, an art invitation, and the song “Down Before Up.”Make sure to download the field guide and show notes at smartseeds.net.
