2020: GUARDIANS OF EARTH:
See Today, Solve the Future
PARENTS, TEACHERS, AND ADULTS HELP PAGE
What is a Guardian? Here is a definition: A Defender, Protector, Keeper.
Example: A person who protects the Earth.
Thank you parents, teachers, and other adults for coming here to learn about our nonprofit’s free art competition for all kids 3 – 18 years old!
It’s about focusing on our Earth, the Environment, and the CHALLENGES we’re facing while getting kids everywhere thinking about their feelings, ideas, and solutions.
Children’s Art Experience! is excited to have your child participate! We want to assure you that we have your child’s safety and protection as our #1 concern.
Let’s begin with the six Environmental Questions. Here they are:
1. Who are the Guardians of Earth and what do they look like?
2. Why is guarding life on Earth important and what tools do Guardians of Earth use?
3. What living things need protection?
4. What threatens our Earth? What are our Environmental problems?
5. What Superpowers might a Guardian of Earth have?
6. How can you be a better Guardian of Earth?
Please read and discuss them with your child (if they cannot), or they can go it on their own if they’d rather. We want you to be helpful in explaining questions but not giving answers. Got it?!
