Every single one of us wants his house was cozy, comfortable, unique, and forever, anywhere, who has not been away from home far away from the members of the family, he knew that he had been waiting for a home, is always to listen and understand will help you in difficult times. This is the reason why the families would have a tradition that the children should learn from the move and your future family.

Psychologists are saying, how the child will later relate to ourselves, others, and life in General – it depends entirely on the parents. Life seems to him a never-ending vacation, or an exciting trip, and it seems like a tedious, thankless, and difficult job, when you are on a visit to the school. The child perceives the world through the eyes of an adult – a parent.
There are external factors that impact on the family traditions. The modern standard of living, and progress is dictated by the rules, and that there is nothing special, it is a three – to-four-year-old to easily cope with the complexity of the computer turning on and off of the lighting in the rooms. With the inclusion of a TV and watch a children's program. Also, the opening and closing of the valves with the water supply, do you know where she is in hot water when it's cold. Gently touch the radiator, and know that the heating is working, when it's cold outside, and doesn't work when it is warm.

There are a number of children's educational programs in the field of energy efficiency and the environment in Belarus, Russia, Ukraine, the pre-school and school educational institutions. However, it is necessary to say that such programs are not mandatory for the learning and training takes place on a voluntary basis. But, the day is near when they are passed to the relevant government regulations and issues of energy-saving, energy-saving, for the kids it will be so obvious, such as the code of conduct, the history of his native land, the geography, etc.

It is a true love of the game, and especially if he is playing his favorite people: his father, mother, brother, sister, grandparents.
I have been myself a witness to the good teaching, the approach to economical water consumption in the young family. The mother is teaching her 4-year-old son, sam, to brush your teeth in the morning and in the evening. When it is a question of the family Council, it was about how to save water, with the aim of reducing the fee for its use, the mother organized a game with my son, who will you save water while brushing your teeth.

The list of good works, to be able to the guy is a great help to mom cleaning up toys after themselves, and younger sister, to bring and present to the Pope a tool in the pursuit of the last of any repair, etc., At the end of each day, the family Council, were all of the good deeds done by the son and sealed in the results. His father invited the boy into a list of the good deeds include saving energy, it is found, the inspection of electric meter with the numbers, and to explain what needs to be done to the amount that has been planned.
At this age, children know the numbers, and they may differ in a larger number of smaller ones. For this type of business the special bonuses. A week later, the 5-year-old child, is clearly taught, if there is no one in the nursery, the light needs to be turned off, if you just came out of the bathroom, the light should be off when no one is watching the TV, you must close it.
