A great way to instil upon young children the fragility of planet Earth and the importance of having a good green footprint.
The Good Green Footprint: Crafts to Help Save the Planet Synopsis
Playing on the well-known phrase 'carbon footprint', this make-and-do book includes a range of crafts on the green theme. Photo and illustrated step-by-step guides show children how to make all sorts of simple things that link in with the reduce, reuse, recycle concept. For example, scrap material can be transformed into a shopping bag - reducing the need for throwaway bags. An old shirt becomes a peg bag for hanging clothes on the line to dry instead of using a dryer; and unused portions of used paper become papier mache pals and greetings cards.
Christina Goodings knows how to keep young children interested and occupied. She draws on her experiences as a primary school teacher, a Sunday school teacher and a storyteller in her writing of books for children. These include The Whizzy Bizzy Christmas Fun Book, Growing Green and My Little Bible Board Book.
