Good projects for helping kids get involved in the environment
Article Toolsby Tony Marquez
Most people think that helping the environment means planting a tree but it is much more. The environment is also the air we breathe, the water we drink, the lives that exist in it and more. To teach children about the environment, one needs to look at all its parts.
Teach children to see the things that "harm" the environment and then allow them to think of ways to "cure" it. For example, show them a glass with dirty water in it, have them think of what harm it will do, and then have think about ways to make it clean and how that will help the environment. Or, show them how a bee pollinate, and ask them what would happen if there were no flowers. This will go a longer way then just planting something.
There are more than enough examples you can use, life is out there and begging to exist.
