As an environmental educator in Georgia, I would further recommend that
anyone interested, contact me for information about the Environmental
Education Alliance of Georgia, read Bruce Cornell's book "Sharing Nature
with Children", and be aware of several good training programs for teaching
children about nature (Project WET, Project WILD, Project Learning Tree and
Project WildBird), which are offered at various locations statewide.
