Some things grow, eat, and need water to stay alive. Other things stay just the same and never grow at all.
Step by step
- The plant, the cat and the fish are alive. They grow, and they need food and water.
- The stone, the ball and the toy rabbit are not alive. They never grow and never eat.
- The toy rabbit looks like an animal, but it cannot move or grow by itself.
Examples
- You are alive too: you grow, you eat and you breathe.
- Your shoes are not alive. They stay the same size for ever.
Key takeaways
- Living things grow, eat and need water.
- Looking like an animal does not make something alive.
