Who is Sid the Seed?

I watched a children’s audio book on YouTube called “Sid The Seed,” written & illustrated by Daniel R. Pagan.                                                         

It’s a lovely rhyming story for children about a little seed called Sid, who likes sharing his home with a spider called Pip and a caterpillar called Kim.

When Sid’s friends leave to find something new he stays alone in his hole too scared to venture outside.

I found the story a little sad, especially when Sid’s friends leave and he was left alone.

Although Sid gets his happy ending when he is reunited with his friends Pip and Kim, it still left me with a feeling of loss.

As an adult I realise a lot of children must feel alone and isolated, especially when they are unable to make friends or when their best friend leave to attend a different school.

Friendship plays a big part but it also sends a message to us all, that sometimes you need to venture out, or get left behind!

How can we make it an easy transition for our children when friends leave?

It’s a lovely story the children would definitely enjoy watching it.

 

My final thoughts: as adults we are always looking for something new, sometimes we don’t realise that what we already have, is special!
