The Green Room

Children who connect with nature grow into adults who care about protecting it.

Sylvie de Sousa and Katharine Byers are two Vancouver Moms who’ve put together a bag of tricks sure to nurture eco-consciousness in any kid (and, hopefully, prevent the onset of what Richard Louv calls “nature deficit disorder”). They helped us put together activities to turn kids into bird watchers and protectors for our November newsletter.

I am a lunch monitor for a grade 2 class. I am trying to find kid-friendly fact or fiction questions that I may ask my kids through their lunch hour. Would you have any suggestions where I may find it??
