Our club was planning workshop series to educate pressing environment issues to local elementary children and discuss plausible solutions from children's perspective. The motivation was planting an awareness from the early age so that the younger ones could get acquainted with environmental issues and be conscious about them. We put advertisements in local residential housings and 15 children age from 8 to 11. First, we started the workshop with a children friendly issue, 'Endangered animal species.' PPT presentation on the topic and small group teaching and children's feed back presentation were coordinated. Fun games and goody bags for the hard working(?) children were the final events of the workshop. We received great feed backs from our young students, boosting our confidence to plan coming workshops during summer break. Engaging age appropriate topic and explanation could catch young ones attention to get involved with serious environmental issues, that was our humble learning.
