<p><strong>What&#8217;s noteworthy at the site:</strong></p>
<p>Rainforest Heros is packed with tools for adults that make teaching kids about rainforests easier. For example at the <a href="http://www.ran.org/new/kidscorner/teachers_lounge/">Teacher&#8217;s Lounge</a>, you can download an awesome Kids Action Toolkit that&#8217;s designed to answer your students&#8217;/kids questions about rainforests, climate change, Indigenous land rights, animal and plant species, and the latest causes of deforestation. There&#8217;s also a neat FREE movie you can watch with your kids, Forest Family Forever!, that tells the story of a thousand year old grandfather tree who teaches his sapling grandson about the wonders of the rainforests and what kids can do to save them. Lastly are lesson plans, ideas, fact sheets and more &#8211; all created to help you pass on rainforest knowledge to the kiddos.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.ran.org/new/kidscorner/kid_s_action/">The kids corner</a> is made just for the littles and has activities, action steps, news about what other kids are doing and more.</p>
<p>The <a href="http://www.ran.org/new/kidscorner/jungle_gym/">Jungle Gym</a> section of the site is made for fun and learning with a Kids&#8217; Art Gallery, Crafts and Recipes, Games, Coloring Books and more.</p>
<p>Best of all is a <a href="http://www.ran.org/new/kidscorner/heroes_corner/">heroes area</a> that highlights what kids all over are doing to save the rainforests. Kids learn best by example, in my opinion, and when they learn from other kids it drives the point even further home.</p>
<p>Visit <strong><a href="http://rainforestheroes.com/">Rainforest Heroes</a></strong> today and get the whole family involved in rainforest action.</p>
