Kids' Corner
Fun Games, Quizzes & Activities
We all use water in many ways, including for drinking, bathing, washing and watering our plants and lawns. But water is a limited resource. That is why it is vital that we all find ways to conserve water.
Kids play an important role in making sure that every drop counts. That's why it is essential that we start teaching our children about water conservation at an early age. It is the youth of today who will make sure that there is enough water for everyone for many tomorrows to come.
Kids' Corner offers fun activities and games to increase our children's awareness about water conservation. (And we, as adults, could probably learn from these as well.)
