10 Ways To Help Your Child Embrace “Green Living”


10 Ways To Help Your Child Embrace “Green Living” – Part 1 – SmartBean

Well it's actually a list of 5 (since this is part 1), but 5 really simply but effective ways to help your kids, even little ones as young as 4 and 5, become conscious of their eco-footprint and environmental issues. Raising our kids to be "green" is indeed one of best things we could do for plant earth - "the only home we've ever known" (Quote from Carl Sagan's "Pale Blue Dot" video - linked in the article - it really hits the spot...).

I recently came across your blog and have been reading along. I thought I would leave my first comment. I dont know what to say except that I have enjoyed reading. Nice blog. I will keep visiting often.

Kids are the future of our planet, they must be encouraged and motivated to be eco-friendly and lead a green life.

Pathways world school recently initiated such campaigns which were well recieved by the students. Some students spent their holidays cleaning up a local water body as a part of the Patauda water conservation project http://pathwaysworldschool.wordpress.com/2010/06/07/patauda-water-conservation-project/ and then there were kids who presented award winning models of eco-friendly city, giving a hope for the future http://pathwaysworldschool.wordpress.com/2010/06/25/hope-for-the-future/
