10 Ways Kids Can Help the Earth

This article details a lot of "little" things kids can do to get thinking about conservation issues. Most of it is probably stuff you're already doing to a certain extent. We're currently doing a LIFEPAC on "Environment" and the treasures God has placed on our earth. A few examples of God's treasures on earth are animals, mountains, trees and air. You get the picture. The book tells the children that they need to take care of the things God has given them. We get a biblical picture of the Garden of Eden and how Man was given dominion over all the earth. It's a second grade curriculum, so it isn't too detailed, but we've checked out a few library books about throwing away your trash and the like that we'll be reading over the next couple weeks. http://www.cnn.com/2007/HEALTH/family/10/23/par.enviro.kid/index.html
