The name most likely comes from the Latin aperire, to open, which is what the buds are doing. The showers are real enough. Spring storms form where warm air from the south meets cold air still coming down from the north. That makes for a restless, rainy month, and after a hard storm you will find worms on the sidewalk, pushed up out of soaked soil. It is also the month baseball comes back, with opening day and the first games played in a jacket.

Arbor Day started in Nebraska in 1872, a nearly treeless prairie state, where settlers planted about a million trees in a single day; it is now kept on the last Friday of April. Earth Day follows the same idea on the 22nd, and April is National Poetry Month as well, which is why poetry made the list.

Tuck it into a rainy-day folder, or play it online when recess moves indoors.
