Autumn seeds are spread in lots
of different ways - wind, animals,
water...

Trees like field maple, sycamore
and ash have winged seeds.

They are specially shaped to travel along by the wind and often look a bit like helicopters :O)

Make your own paper helicopter seeds and see if they are as good as real ones.
