Children are used to the parties that consist of junk food, loud music and the like.However, today's environmental condition is serious, so to save our environment, we need to do our bit by making small changes in our activities like planning our kid's birthday parties in an eco-friendly manner.
The first idea for the "green" birthday party is selecting a "green" location.You can put some choices in front of your child like gardens, parks and farms and let him or her select one for the party.The benefit of choosing a natural outdoor location is that it doesn't require much decoration, which will save your money.Also, it'll bring your child close to nature.
Secondly, go "green" while you're listing out the required materials for the party. Use reusable and recyclable materials like cloth table covers instead of plastic.For decorations, avoid plastics by using natural things like plants, candles, etc.What's more, you can avoid using paper invitations and invite people by sending e-mail invitations to them.
Thirdly, plan the food according to the 'green theme.Serve delicious but healthy food to the guests.Fruits, vegetables and nuts can be the most appropriate parts in party food as they taste great, and are extremely healthy.Home-made cakes will also serve the purpose very well.
Lastly, conduct "green" activities.For giving children a learning experience, take them on a trip to the nearest farm and let them see the working system there.After the learning experience, let them play together in a park.Also children can make up stories which you can write down for them.These written pages will be colored by the kids and will be their return gifts.
Plan a unique but wonderful birthday party for your kid and enjoy.If we all contribute to this cause, soon we'll see our earth back in her green coat.

Are your children liked by their teachers? All parents want their children to impress(给...的印象) their teachers and succeed in school. You can get your children to impress their teachers by following these easy steps.
Make sure they’re prepared. Teachers are impressed by children coming to school prepared to learn. Make sure they have everything they need—pencils textbooks, erasers and so on.
Require them to be active in class. Teach them to ask teachers questions when they don’t understand something. Some children think teachers are bothered by questions, but most teachers are impressed when children take the initiative(采取主动) in asking questions. They should take part in class discussions, giving their opinions politely.
Keep your children healthy. If your children are tired and hungry, they won’t be ready to learn. Children need at least 8 to 10 hours of sleep per night. Feed your children a solid breakfast and prepare a healthy lunch. Provide them with fruit and other healthy foods—apples or bananas are better for them than cookies.
Make sure that your children do their homework. If they really don’t understand it, discuss it with them patiently. Don’t help them do their homework. Teachers can always tell who it is that does the work.
Teach your children good manners and habits. Children need to arrive at the school punctually, and be polite to their teachers and classmates. Parents need to teach these skills at home. Nothing is sweeter than children who say “please” and “thank you”, and these are children their teachers are certain to love.
