PBS Kids EekoHouse Helps Kids Learn About Maintaining a Healthy Environment
Learning about the environment can never start too early. The best was for children to learn about conservation and maintaining a healthy environment is by the examples of their parents. To help reinforce learning about the environment PBS.org has a fun game called EekoHouse for Children to play. It interactive game that takes children to different places and asks them what is the best environmentally friendly choice that they can make in a particular situation. One example involves the father of the house leaving a glass of water in the living room and the player is asked if the water should be poured down the sink or used to water a potted plant. There are some basic lessons that children may have thought of doing in their own home and are currently doing. There are also other environmentally friendly examples that the child may not have thought of on his or her own.
