Scoot to School

One of the simplest yet effective ways to introduce eco-friendliness to your child's daily routine is by encouraging them to scoot to school or preschool. The Mini Micro Deluxe Eco scooter and the Maxi Micro Deluxe Eco LED scooter are designed to be lightweight and easy to maneuver, making them ideal for young riders. By opting for these eco-friendly scooters instead of driving, you reduce carbon emissions and teach your child about sustainable commuting from a young age. Plus the Maxi Micro Deluxe Eco LED scooter adds an extra element of fun with its LED light-up wheels!

Nature Scavenger Hunts

Combine the thrill of exploration with environmental education by organising nature scavenger hunts with the Mini Micro Deluxe Eco and Maxi Micro Deluxe Eco LED scooters. Equip your child with their trusty scooter, and create a list of items commonly found in your local park or nature reserve. Include things like pinecones, leaves, rocks or even animal tracks. This activity not only gets kids outdoors but also sharpens their observation skills and nurtures a love for the environment.

Park Clean-up Missions

Teaching children about the importance of keeping our outdoor spaces clean is crucial for their eco-conscious development. Organise a park clean-up mission with your child and their friends, each armed with their Micro eco scooter. Provide them with biodegradable rubbish bags and gloves, and let them use their scooters to navigate the area. This activity not only teaches them about responsible waste disposal but also fosters a sense of community and stewardship.

Botanical Adventures

Take your child on a botanical adventure with their Mini Micro Deluxe Eco or Maxi Micro Deluxe Eco LED scooter. Visit local botanical gardens or nature reserves and explore the diverse plant life. Encourage your child to document their findings in a nature journal, where they can sketch plants and take notes about what they've learned. It's a fantastic way to stimulate their curiosity about the natural world while enjoying the great outdoors.

DIY Garden Projects

For a more immersive eco-friendly experience, start a small garden with your child and let them use their eco scooter to gather leaves for compost or water the plants. Use recycled materials for planting containers and teach them how to care for plants sustainably. It's a hands-on lesson in eco-conscious living that can lead to a lifelong passion for gardening and sustainability.
