Roo's birthday gift


On Roo's birthday. There will be cake and candles and there will be lots of toys.

Everything he wanted was all shiny and nice. Then came his best friend and said excitedly I have got something for you. 

Roo took the surprise gift and opened it with glee. And to his surprise in it was a tiny fig tree.

Roo said, thank you but I would like a toy. His friend said, this is a special tree because you are my special friend. 

Roo asked whats special about it. The friend said like your teddy bear who is bigger than you and the roof of the house that's tall. If you care for the plant well enough, it could touch the roof. Every month you water and give it some sunshine, it grows an inch taller and grows as fast as you. Soon it will be bigger than your teddy and can even touch the roof.
You can check every month whos taller the tree or the teddy bear or you. :)

Roo really loved the idea of something that could grow as tall as the roof.
He was so happy with the gift he showed it to all his friends with the story of the fig tree.

Though he loved his toys, he had something more important to take care of everyday. 

Soon it was his friends birthday and he brought his friend an orange tree. The friend loved it that the next summer they had lots of oranges to pick.
And all the toys stayed in the toy box while Roo and his friend played around the trees.
So kids what would like to gift your friend?

Toys day out

One day Ru was playing with the construction truck, car, school bus and train at home. It was a nice bright sunny day of spring. The train said, Ru why are you playing with me in the house. I don't like to stay indoor unless I am parked in a rail yard and resting at night. The school bus said, I never play in house, other than a 5 annual holidays and weekend when I am resting. But then I miss all my tiny friends. The construction truck said Ru I never play in house, except when I am being cleaned or maintained. I like making houses, bridges and working hard and love showing little kids how I work. The car said Ru, I never play in the house. I like to take you out to the park. I like the garage because it saves me from the cold and rain. But I like to go out on a bright sunny day. I like a good wash and the sparkle the sun puts on me. And I love to take you to the beach and the mountain for a nice hike and the garden to see the butterflies. For there are so many...

Roo and Hop

Roo put on his shoes and opened the door and saw his friend Hop - the squirell, jump over the branches and up the tree to the tree house. He ran to the tree and tried to climb like Hop but alas! he couldnt and asked his Mommy. Mom said Oh Roo! you need some strong arms and a big long tail like Hop to go up the tree. But what could we use! So Mom brought out a ladder and a strong rope like Hop's tail. And up climbed Roo strongly like a pro. They sat together in the tree house and munched some fruits.
