Here are some ways to save water that kids can learn:

Turn off the tap: Turn off the tap when you're not using it, like when brushing your teeth. 

 

Take short showers: Take a shower instead of a bath, and try to keep it under five minutes. 

 

Reuse towels: Reuse your towels instead of washing them after every use. 

 

Recycle tap water: Reuse water you use for rinsing vegetables or melting ice in your cooler to water your houseplants. 

 

Keep a refillable water bottle: A refillable water bottle ensures your child has water on hand. 

 

Water plants carefully: Water your plants in the morning or evening, and avoid watering them when the sun is strong. 

 

Don't waste food: Avoid making too much food, or eat the leftovers the next day. 

 

Reduce, reuse, recycle: Reduce the number of plastic bags you use, reuse boxes and bottles, and recycle instead of throwing things away. 

 

Visit a drinking water plant: Some public water utilities offer free tours of their facilities. 

 

Learning about water conservation can help kids understand how their actions can impact the environment and the planet.
