Trees love children

Children are likely to learn more about trees:

I often feel that trees call children and young people to come to them and play. Trees love children and so do the children. Trees have something special gleeful and breezy about them. They are environmentally friend and improve the beauty of nature. They attract beautiful birds, animals  and others. I have noticed that they have some special and deep relationship with children who love to play under their shadow. Trees give more natural beauty to its surroundings and area. They have many benefits and children know their benefits. Children are fond of playing and singing near trees and that's why they are likely to learn more about "trees and their importance" than adults people do. We know that all children do not plant trees in the garden located in  front of their home but they still love to have some sort of association with the trees around them. For example, climbing on the tree, playing around them, resting under its shadow, picking some fruits and flowers.

 
All alluring plants especially, trees are like children in many ways. Children also bear flowers when they give cute smile, and as they grow up their thoughts grow into leaves. They also bear fruits when they laugh because their laughter becomes sweet berries.
Talking to children about trees is like making trees speak for themselves. Many children have given cute and amazing reasons about "Why they love trees and how?" Some children just love trees because they themselves are natural beauty. Some love fruit bearing plants while other fruits bearing trees. Surprisingly, all children aged from 7, know that plants, flowers and trees help to reduce air pollution and keep the environment clean and safe. Some tell about jamblang trees which are located near their house and they often go there in every evening to pick some fruits. Some school going students have developed their interests of gardening. They have some little gardens in their homes and they help gardener in giving water to flowers and trees. They said that they have learnt many gardening tips from their home gardener as they believe that gardener know more about all kinds of trees and plants . 

Children connect with trees via their many different manners of involving with them. . Some love to put a name of trees, recognize them from their flowers, some love trees for their flowers, like them for their broad leaves and some like to play in parks and bid gardens. Some love birds more than trees as they sing sitting on trees every early morning. Some also love to climb up the trees for time passing and enjoy watching other children playing under the trees. 

I have seen many pre-schools or nursery schools with some trees and flowers planted in their gardens. They believe that the young kids should be provided an opportunity to play and learn about trees and other natures. They do accept that all kids aged from 3 to 5 should not be imprisoned in airless environment, at such young age they are likely to learn and adopt new things quickly, so they should have enjoy, play and movement especially in a fresh cool air.

I understand that how trees are important and play a paramount role in children mentally and physically development. How children are attracted to them and love them so much. But unfortunately most of us do not know this fact about the strong relationship between children and trees. Defrorestation in almost every country is seen, Some reports shows that lack of supervisoring and checking on trees and plants is also the reason of deforestation. For example unchecked cutting of trees is one of the kinds of deforestation. I wonder when will the adult and mature people learn to love them like children do.
