Teaching Your Children About Proper Waste Management

At the end of the day, everything you do at home in front of your children will in some way,
resonate with them -- so it’s important to teach good habits from the get-go! One of the
easiest things you can do is lead by example -- and waste management and cleanliness
is a great place to start! Below are a few ways you can instill good waste habits into your
children!

Garbage in Every Room

At a young age, it’s important to put different trash bins in every room that they’re constantly
in. This helps them figure out and learn that there’s a place for garbage every time they’re
done with something, and to also get rid of it once it fills up. Not only does this teach them to
throw things out, but they’re less wasteful and can help out by tying off and bringing full bags.

Teach Them About Different Materials

It’s important that your children know about the different materials associated with garbage,
especially so they can make informed decisions about what to do with them. Showing them
the difference between paper, plastic, aluminum, and other materials prove very beneficial
when it comes to them knowing what to do with each one.

Keep Them Responsible

It’s worth showing your children what can happen to garbage that is left unattended and
uncollected, so they know about the negatives that come with garbage.Letting them know
that once full odor becomes a big factor, and certain things need to be taken out immediately
to prevent it from happening!
