29th September 2007, 5-6 yrs , Clean Water

We started with rain cycle and talked about where all the rain water goes. Then in three teams of three they created scenes around a water body like lake, river and ocean. When they were ready Zeto visited them from a far away planet. He asked for clean drinking water to refill his tanks. The children found that the lakes, rivers and oceans did not have clean water, then they went down to the kitchen and fetched all the drinking water that they could find but it was not enough to fill Zeto's spaceship. Then they found out that the only clean water available was in Antartica and the clean water supplied to their homes require big machines to clean the water and to fill Zeto's spaceship huge machines consuming lots of electricity would be required. Then they came up with their own ways to keep water clean like, save drinking water, don't put garbage in the river, lake etc….
