Kavi's Leaf-Sorting Lab
Kavi brings a big basket of leaves into the lab 🧺. "Look!" hoots Kavi. Some leaves are round like coins 🪙, some are long and thin like ribbons 🎋. Some are big as a plate 🍌, some are small as a fingernail ☘️. "We can sort plants by what we see on their leaves — their shape and their size. Let's be leaf scientists!"
