Today the environmental education of preschool children is top of the agenda. If we fail to explain and teach kids to love and respect nature, they are bound to be indifferent to it when they grow up. Every kid needs to know that if we do not take care of nature, we are in for an environmental disaster. We, people, must help nature. Children need to know that deforestation, air pollution, destruction of rare plants and forest fires are all leading our planet into an environmental abyss. This project is intended to teach children to see the beauty of nature, to learn what good trees, in our case the birch tree, can do, to talk about the beauty of Russian forests, songs that have been sung, poetry written in praise of it, to watch the birch tree in different seasons.
