Because the beaver isn't just an animal; it's an ecosystem!

CLIMATE CHANGE SUPERHEROES


This year as I was thinking over how to educate children at the festival I thought why just rely on exhibitors, why not enlist their parents too to deliver the message? Teaching them means they can help their child AND learn something in the process. Two birds with one stone? I thought I’d make some kind of primer or cheat sheet that they could use to ‘guide’ their child through the climate change superheroes activity, Yesterday I finished it and shared it on the Facebook beaver management forum.

All ideas usually seem equally good in my head. That’s just how I’m built. It’s only when they get out in the air and sunlight I can see which ones were clunkers and which ones chimed – If I’m lucky. I never expected the response I got for this. 144 likes and 125 people have shared it with their friends so far. (On wednesday over a 1000 if you count my personal page too.)

I guess it educated some folk.

The only one of the six I saw some confusion on was hypoheic exchange. I may tweak that wording a little. But lets just say I’m keeping it. Thanks Erika for those perfect little illustrations.

Climate Change Superheroes


This activity is designed to teach children (and their families) how beavers can help us cope with the changing climate. Children receive a bookmark to start and gather climate stickers by learning how beavers can help. Because climate change is a daunting and depressing topic, the illustrations were designed to explain complex beaver benefits in cheerful and simple terms. Afterwards children can take the bookmark with them to remember what they’ve learned and teach others.
