Parents, this book is an incredible tool to help you talk about and take action for our climate!
Engage your children in a problem-solving mindset:
What good things are we already doing in our daily life to protect the earth’s resources?
What environmental challenges or changes have you noticed in our neighborhood, community, state, nation, or the world?
What changes can our family make right now to take even better care of our planet?
Ask questions that prompt conversations about environmental ethics:
Why should we walk instead of drive to the park?
When trash disappears into the garbage truck, wastewater disappears down the drain or car exhaust disappears into the sky, where does it go?
If waste doesn’t stay and make our home or neighborhood dirty, why is it important to reduce our waste and speak up for a cleaner world?
Acknowledge tough choices ("It's hard to know how far to turn down the thermostat in the winter."), and make a point to discuss your family’s environmental values.
Explain that simple decisions can have an impact, like coloring on both sides of the page, turning off the water when you brush your teeth or turning out lights when you leave a room.
But make it clear that no family can protect earth’s resources all on their own. Raise your voice for collective solutions with DGT’s kid-friendly printable advocacy sheets or sign-up to volunteer with a local environmental justice organization.
“Make time to discuss the books you read and the service projects you do together. By talking intentionally and openly about complicated ideas, you are giving your child the opportunity to strengthen their compassion, problem-solving, and empathy muscles. ”
