ECO WEDNESDAY: LET’S SAVE THE FORESTS!.

“What happens when a fire hits the trees in the forest? Is a forest fire dangerous for animals? What can cause a forest fire? How can we help prevent the forest from catching fire? Who puts out the fire? What number do we call the fire department?” – these and many other questions were answered by our kindergarteners.

After explaining the cause-and-effect relationship, we came to the fun part of the workshop. We divided the children into two groups – the “Firefighters” group and the “Fire” group. The fire was attacking the forests, but our firefighters were successfully putting out the fires… until we were left with one firefighter – then the fire was more powerful and destroyed our forests. The children liked the game, and we conveyed an important message to them in a simple way.

After all, we made firefighter hats and went home with a smile! See you next Wednesday!

The workshop was conducted as part of the project “Kornati – It’s important to know about the sea 9” co-financed by the Ministry of Science and Education of the Republic of Croatia.

*The project is financed by the Ministry of Science and Education of the Republic of Croatia

*The European Solidarity Corps (ESC) is a program of the European Union to strengthen solidarity in various areas: from helping disadvantaged people and providing humanitarian aid to engagement for health and the environment in the EU and beyond.

The program offers young people the opportunity to respond to the needs of the community, make a concrete contribution to society, and in the process gain invaluable experience and develop new skills. The program is also intended for organizations active in the field of solidarity that want to involve young people in their activities.

Volunteers from the European Solidarity Forces program took part in the activity.
