This green activity book is for early care providers and educators of children ages 3–8 who want to incorporate developmentally appropriate environmental lessons into their daily curriculum.
Grant money is available to support programs in teaching children the aspects of sustainability and environmentalism, yet there are not a lot of resources designed for early childhood. This book is that resource.
The environmental topics covered directly correspond to those in Go Green Rating Scale for Early Childhood Settings (ISBN 978–1-60554–006-1) and include 100 activities that tie to the topics of waste reduction and recycling, food, clean air, water, weather and climate, energy, and toxicity reduction.
Includes suggestions to involve families and create community connections, sample planning forms, and a resource list of related children's books.
