Enigin - Teaching How to Save Energy
My one year old son has started walking in the last 2 weeks. And in the last 2 days he has worked out how to open our doors at home, including the back door.
It is amazing to watch him reach up to the handle, pull it down and open the door - all on his own! He has obviously watched us do the same and worked out for himself how to do it. So within one year of his life he has learnt too many things to name or number really.
You always hear about how easily and quickly babies learn. How it is the best time to teach them a foreign language as they will so easily pick it up. It is the ideal time for parents to in-still in their baby/children how they want them to behave and what sort of child they want them to be. These early years really do make all the difference.
And the same applies in teaching them about such things as energy efficiency. It is something which has become increasingly important in the last few years. More and more businesses and homeowners are getting involved. Governments and schools are taking part in becoming enegry efficient.
As I have said before there are so many tips and pieces of advice out there for us to individually get involved. And who are we really doing this for? For many of us it is our future, our children.
So does in not seem sensible to instill such ideas into our way of life at home, and therefore help our children to grow up understanding the importance and impact of energy efficiency and saving energy. Hopefully my son will grown up into a world and part of a world that take energy efficiency seriously and actually continues to do something about it.
