Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Timmy who loved playing in his sandbox. He had a spade, a yo-yo, and a big bag of seeds.

One day, while Timmy was playing in the sandbox, he noticed that a group of birds were looking for food. Timmy felt sorry for the birds, so he decided to feed them by planting sunflowers in the sandbox.

He dug a hole in the sand with his spade and put a seed in it. Then he covered it up and patted the sand down with his spade. Timmy repeated this process until he had planted all of his seeds.

The next day, when Timmy came back to check on his sunflowers, he was in for a surprise! All of the sunflowers had grown to be as tall as Timmy! He was so excited to see that the birds were hiding and eating the seeds from the sunflowers.

Timmy decided to play hide-and-seek with the birds, using his yo-yo as a distraction. Every time he swung the yo-yo, the birds would fly away and then come back to the sunflowers to feed.

Timmy played with the birds all day and had so much fun. He was happy that he could help the birds by planting sunflowers in his sandbox. From that day on, Timmy made it his mission to plant sunflowers and play with the birds every day.

And so, Timmy became known as the Sunflower Seeder, spreading joy and happiness wherever he went!
