Paper Pots for Little Seeds

In Ilorin, Ada learns that old paper does not always need to be thrown away. In class, her teacher shows the pupils how to roll used paper into small pots, fill them with soil, and plant okra seeds for the school garden.

As the seeds begin to grow, the children discover that paper can safely return to the soil when used well. They learn that recycling can be simple and gentle, helping plants grow while keeping the environment clean.

Paper Pots for Little Seeds introduces young readers to recycling through hands-on gardening and familiar classroom activities. The story encourages care for plants, patience, and respect for nature.

Designed for Primary 1 pupils (Ages 6–7), this book supports early learning in:

• Paper recycling and reuse
