Kavi Plans a Mini Garden
Kavi holds a packet of seeds 🌰 and a little pot 🪴. "I want to grow my own mini garden!" hoots Kavi. "I already know what plants need — light ☀️, water 💧, soil 🪴, and space to spread their roots and leaves." Kavi smiles. "The clever part is planning it well and tending it every single day. Let's use what we know and grow something real!"

A peek inside
We are choosing where to put our mini garden. One spot is a sunny windowsill ☀️, the other is a dark cupboard 🌑. Which should we pick, and why?
