If I Had a Kid
If I had a kid, I hope they will be as cool as this one. Last week, when I was waiting for the MTA bus, I saw this kid with the coolest backpack. I'm guessing this kid was in grammar school, and all the kids I know that age have Super Heros or Disney characters on their backpack. So to see a kid sporting a Recycling Sign on their backpack IS the ultimate COOL kid in my opinion. It's possible his mom or dad picked out this bag for him and made him use it. However, I'm hoping that he picked it out, afterall kids can be very picky when it comes to style. Especially NYC kids. I love seeing the next generation care about the environment, it gives me hope. It gives me hope that there will be another generation out there championing for the Earth!

That is neat. Even if his parents picked it out, maybe it will make him think about it and make informed decisions on how he lives on this earth.
ReplyDeleteThat IS awesome. I'm betting the kid picked it out or at least agreed to use it. I know of my own kids, if they think a backpack is stupid or dorky, they're just not going to use it. Which is why *I'M* using a backpack that looks like a bumblebee.
ReplyDeleteAgreed...that sure is one COOL kid! We only have pups...I'm going to see if I can find them similiar recycling dog collars.
ReplyDeleteLoch is exactly like this kid looks, LOL, unfortunately at the age of 8 he is considered "nerdy"... I keep telling him nerds win in the end!
ReplyDeleteI think more kids are learning about going green, etc. in school and he probably picked it out for himself.
ReplyDeleteSmart kid.... Hope you are keeping warm too!
ReplyDeleteI've taught my kids not to throw junk on the floor, now I am having to teach them not to dirty up our beautiful green space! Even if someone were not a "green freak", I don't see why they wouldn't want to see beauty around them and not trash! It's a good thing. I hope my kids we'll feel the same as I do! Nature is a beautiful thing without trash in it!
