What are some eco-friendly science project ideas for kids?

Here are a few ideas: 1) Create a compost bin to learn about decomposition. 2) Build a solar oven to cook s'mores. 3) Grow plants using recycled materials.

How can I make a solar oven?

To make a solar oven, you'll need a cardboard box, aluminum foil, plastic wrap, and black paper. Line the inside of the box with black paper, cover the top with plastic wrap, and use aluminum foil to reflect sunlight into the box.

What materials do I need for the compost bin project?

For a compost bin, you'll need a container (like a plastic bin), kitchen scraps (fruits, vegetables), yard waste (leaves, grass), and some soil to kickstart the composting process.

Can you suggest some resources for learning more about eco-friendly projects?

Sure! Websites like National Geographic Kids and the EPA's website have great resources. You can also check out books on sustainable science projects.
