Ebook: Environment and Social Understanding: Life Skills for Kids

Our children are the leaders of tomorrow so we need to help them increase their social awareness, ethical development & environmental understanding. To sustain our planet & to improve the quality of life for all, we need to take care of people, animals & their environments. To help your children make a positive contribution, they need to be aware of the consequences of their own & other's actions. These 15 minute activities support children's social awareness, ethical development & environmental understanding.

It is every parent's wish for their child to grow up happy, healthy & inspired so they can lead a meaningful & fulfilling life. Today's children are very interested in the environment & in a recent study they ranked environmental issues ahead of science, history, IT & art, & only slightly behind English & maths. Children who understand what it means to be environmentally & socially responsible will be able to act ethically in the face of life's many challenges. Empowering children with social and environmental awareness will ensure they make a positive contribution to our world not just part of a family, but as contributing members of community & proactive global citizens.

Most children live in societies that are diverse in terms of gender, culture & social status. Children with an awakened social consciousness are more likely to interact responsibly & sensitivity by being empathetic towards others regardless of race, gender, ethnicity, disability, class, or sexual identity. Your children make numerous choices every day & you won't always be there to guide them, so help them develop the ability to act responsibly & navigate life successfully.

The activities in this Inspired Children Home Activity Book support your children to develop the skills they need to act ethically & increase their understanding of the many facets of sustainability. For humans, sustainability is about maintaining long-term wellbeing, which has environmental, economic & social aspects.

As tomorrow's leaders, our children's social awareness, ethical development & environmental understanding will have a huge impact on their lives & the lives of others. The 15 minute activities help your child understand the environmental & social consequences of their own actions & be proactive members of a family, community & as global citizens.
