Children, too, are often swept along with our busy lifestyle and car journeys become a regular feature of their daily lives.

As well as looking at cars, a topic on transport provides an ideal opportunity for focusing on other healthier and environmentally friendly ways of travelling.

During the project, we can raise children's awareness of pollution by talking about exhaust fumes and pointing out other travel options such as going by bicycle or walking. It may also be appropriate to look at how using public transport can help to reduce the number of cars on our already congested roads.
