Sunny Spots and Shady Places
For grown-ups
Companion summary
Have you ever noticed how one side of a garden feels warm and bright while the other feels cool and shadowy? Knowing where the sun shines helps gardeners grow plants and helps us pick the perfect picnic spot. The sun always moves across the sky from one side to the other, so shadows change throughout the day. When you go outside today, watch how your own shadow moves and grows as the hours pass.
Look Outside!

Look at a window. Can you see sunshine? The sun makes some spots bright. Trees and walls block the sun. Those spots are shady.
