Plants don't eat the way people and animals do. Plants are special. They make their own food. They need air and water to do that.

I was not always a little girl. I was born a baby just like you. I grew and changed. I don't look like a giant baby do I? Some day I will be a grown-up and will look different. The frog hatched from an egg and looked much different. A plant begins as a seed. We all grow and change.

We sure can, but you already know the answer! A non-living thing is anything that is not alive including a bus. Click on the house to see other non-living things and why a bus is not a living thing even though it moves.
Title: a5 (15 of 24)
These things are all non-living. Even though sticks, apples and lemons come from plants, they are not alive. When they are picked or cut off, they will stop growing. They cannot make food or grow anymore.
These toys might look like a bear and a baby, but they are not alive. They will never grow, and do not need to eat food or drink water. They do not move on their own.
A can and bus can go down the street, and balloons float, but they do not move on their own. They do not grow.
Great now let's sort some things!!
