Soil life

Soil is like a home for tiny living things called soil life. They are like little bugs and microbes that live in the dirt under our feet. There are millions of them all around us, but we can't see them because they are too small.

These little soil life are important for making the soil healthy for plants to grow in. They help air and water move through the soil, and they break down dead plants and animals into nutrients that new plants can use. Some soil life even help fight off bad germs that could hurt the plants.

Just like how we need food to live and grow, soil life also need food. They like to eat things like dead leaves, animal poop, and even other smaller bugs. When they eat, they make poop too, which helps make the soil even healthier.

So basically, soil life are like a big team of tiny helpers that make sure plants have everything they need to grow strong and healthy!
