AUDIO VISUAL:
Search through old child’s DVD/ video collection (or visit your local library before hand or the Video Store) or check out what is streaming on your favourite platform to find your child’s favourite shows about trees..

We highly recommend...
The Lorax – an excellent movie about the importance of trees, based on an excellent Dr. Suess book.

For another movie about saving the trees try this:
Fern Gully

For young children try these titles:
Shalom Sesame: Grover Plants a Tree
Go Green – a collection of Nickelodeon shows with "The Wonder Pets! Save the Tree" on it.

Try to find this non-fiction title at your local library:
Bill Nye the Science Guy: Forests, Disney Educational Productions, 2005

My son received a sapling in Grade One for Arbor Day and he planted it in our backyard with his little brother and his Grandpa. Then we took a photo of him in Grade 12 on his graducation day beside the same tree!
