Evan and the beanstalk

by Michelle, mom of a 3-year-old

Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Evan. He met a very nice science teacher who gave him some magic beans.

Evan put the beans in a paper towel, soaked the towel with water, and put the towel-encased beans in a zip-top bag. The science teacher sent him away with special instructions.

“Tape the bag to a window in a sunny spot,” she said, “and the beans will grow.”

Evan asked his mommy to tape the beans to a sunny window, and she did. Then Evan waited for the beans to grow. He checked on them for a whole day. When they did nothing, he ignored them and played with his toys instead.

Then, a week later, Evan’s mommy showed him that the beans had grown after all.

Because the beans had almost popped out of the bag, Evan and his daddy thought it would be a good idea to plant them in the ground.

Evan waters the little beans every day, and Evan’s mommy has to remind him that he doesn’t need to dig and replant them.

Evan and his mommy and daddy hope that the little beans will grow big and tall and live happily ever after.

The End.
