Teaching Resources to Help Kids Care About Water Conservation

Kids in Classroom

Take Care of Texas offers water conservation resources such as an interactive water cycle poster and free publications. Schools can order free mirror clings and have the students stick them to the school’s bathroom mirrors to remind students to turn off the faucet when it’s not being used. Additionally, teachers can educate students about water conservation by building a rain barrel on campus using our free Guide to Yard Care publication or Building a Rain Barrel video. Check out our blog to learn more.
