Respect the Earth eeBoo Flash Cards

Respect the Earth Flash Cards

Respect the Earth Flash Cards teaches kids environmental responsibility and how not to take their planet for granted. The 48 cards are approximately 4 1/2 X 6 inches and are printed in color on both sides. The front of each card starts a sentence in a thought bubble and shows a cat, dog, pig, or rabbit as the one talking. The back of each card shows similar drawings of animals in different settings and offers a suggestion related to reducing, reusing, or recycling. Here are a couple of examples:

Front - When you brush your teeth...

Back - Only run the water when you are actually using it.

Front - To play or read during the day...

Back - Use natural light. Turn on lights only when necessary!

The cards on the image above show the back of several of the cards. The parent card offers suggestions on introducing the subject to children and playing with the cards. Another in a series of flash cards sets from eeBoo, which also included Good Citizenship Flash Cards and Good Manners Flash Cards. 

Try this:

• Take advantage of natural opportunities that arise to practice what has been learned.
• Place the cards in a pile face up. Read the front of the first card and try to come up with your own suggestions before reading the back of the card. Many of the cards can have more than one answer. Train to think of creative solutions.
• Catch them doing good and comment.
• If the card includes interacting with others, role play what you will say and how you will say it with a positive light.
