Trees provide shelter, food and play areas for both animals and children. They are used to build treehouses, swing from swings and have tea parties under. Trees also have environmental benefits like providing shade in summer and allowing wind to blow through their branches. Children are encouraged to appreciate trees through activities like making collages, poems and noticing the different kinds of trees and their benefits.
