Let’s meet them one by one!
☀️Scene 2: The Natural Resources Speak
(Earth stands in center, smiling. Others enter one by one.)
Earth:
Hello children! I’m Earth, your home.
I have many treasures hidden in me – my natural resources!
Come meet my friends!
Water:
(splashes in playfully)
I’m Water – lakes, rivers, oceans, and rain!
You need me to drink, cook, clean, and grow food.
Air:
(swirls around with hands waving)
I’m Air – you can’t see me, but you need me every second to breathe.
Birds fly in me, and I help plants too!
Soil:
(holds a flower pot)
I’m Soil – where plants grow!
Without me, no fruits, vegetables, or trees.
Sun:
(shines brightly, arms wide)
I’m Sun – I give energy and light!
Plants need me to make food, and you need me for warmth.
Trees:
(dances in, waving paper leaves)
We are Trees – we give you oxygen, wood, shade, and fruits.
We are your green friends!
Rocks & Minerals:
(enters with pretend rocks or shiny props)
We are Rocks and Minerals – we’re in your pencils, buildings, and even toothpaste!
Human:
(walks in, looks around amazed)
Wow! I didn’t know Earth gave us so many gifts!
But wait… are we taking good care of them?
Scene 3: A Warning Appears
Pollution (optional villain):
(enters with dark cloth or mask)
Mwahaha! I’m Pollution!
I dirty the air, water, and land!
When people waste or harm natural resources, I grow stronger!
Water:
Oh no! I’m getting full of plastic!
Air:
I’m filled with smoke and dust!
Trees:
People are cutting us down too fast!
Human:
I’m so sorry! We must stop pollution and protect nature!
🌱 Scene 4: The Promise
Earth:
There’s still hope.
Will you all help me protect natural resources?
All Natural Resources (together):
Reuse! Reduce! Recycle!
Save water! Plant trees! Use clean energy!
Human:
I promise to protect the Earth and all its resources!
Narrator:
Let’s all be Earth Heroes!
Together, we can make a difference.
All Together (final line):
Protect natural resources – they are our future!
(Everyone claps and bows)
