About the project 

Preschool period covers the development of children and all areas of their lives. The environment is one of the most important factors that the child is related to. In the preschool period, the child begins to become aware of both his culture and his relations with the environment. During this period, both parents and educators should support children's interest and curiosity about the environment. Thus, from a young age From the beginning, children's awareness of positive behavior, skills, respect and responsibility towards the environment can be increased, and they can gain awareness of environmental problems by recognizing environmental problems.
