Introduction
Environmental education is part of the basic education that should be delivered to students as early as possible. Protecting the environment and reserving the environment are parts of this education. Students should be aware about the importance of environment for their life and for the world, now and the future.
Nowadays, the environmental condition of the world becomes worse. We have to start the effort to stop the degradation. School has an important role to introduce and promote the values behind environmental education.
In the kindergarten level, we can start some environmental education that at the same time also develop the personal development of the student, such as taking care of something. Having their own flower, students at the kindergarten level will learn to have responsibility taking care of their flower. Students also learn about taking care of something.
