Free climate change resources!
We have been working with The Climate Coalition to develop a new collection of games and activities to make learning about climate change a lot more interactive and fun for primary school children!
Our NEW simulator-style game, Tree World, is FREE TO PLAY and a great introduction to the carbon cycle! AND we're making ALL of Busy Things' climate resources FREE to access for the whole of The Great Big Green Week!
Can you avoid a climate crisis?
We challenge you to create a balanced planet where Beeples can happily co-exist with Tree World’s flora and fauna!
Developed for The Great Big Green Week, this fun game is a brilliant way to introduce children to the carbon cycle, carbon emissions and the need for action against the climate crisis.
NB: The best is yet to come!! Tree World is currently a beta game (i.e. we're still developing it) - we have so much planned to make it even more impactful! We'd love your input so please let us know if you have any ideas to improve and extend the learning points of the game. Email sally@busythings.co.uk with your feedback and suggestions!
Who can get the best stats?
Please share your results far and wide! We all know playing is the best way of learning - so get everyone you know playing Tree World and thinking about how our actions affect the planet.
