Some plants have healing powers. The succulent aloe vera, for example, has been used for thousands of years to soothe the skin. When you cut a leaf, you’ll see that it contains a gelatin-like substance, and this can be used to soothe and heal light burns. The aloe vera is also a beautiful plant that grows well indoors. Draw an aloe vera plant.

Making new plants from cuttings is a highly fulfilling activity. Cut off a young stem with a new shoot. Remove two-thirds of the lower leaves and all the offshoot branches. Let the stem form new roots in a glass of water. (This can take up to two weeks.) When new roots have formed, you have a new plant which you can transfer to a new flowerpot.
