Want your kid to get involved? Here are some kid-friendly activities that can teach your child to live greenSMART!
Garden Time
Teaching your kid to grow a garden can be an invaluable lesson. It involves hard work, patience, and it saves the environment AND your wallet.
- Start off with something small that's not as challenging, such as herbs in the window.
- Explain why plants are important to the earth.
- Help them cook a delicious meal when your garden is finally ready.
Crafts and More
Is your recycling piling up? Think about what kinds of crafts you can make with some of the leftover materials. Boxes become robots, cardboard tubes become kaleidoscopes. They dream it up, you help make it happen.
Aside from that, think about what they do with all their free time. Is your kid a TV junkie? Pull them away from the TV and take them to the library, or make a fort with sheets in your living room. That kind of fun can't be found on television!
