Willow Bend’s Discovery Room: “It’s Easy Being Green!”
The hands-on, interactive exhibita are designed to inform and inspire both kids and adults to make conscious choices about the way we live.
Come in and ride our “light bike” to feel how much energy it really takes to light an incandescent and a compact fluorescent light bulb. Discover how much water the average person in Flagstaff uses each day and play the water haul game. Learn what you can recycle in Flagstaff through our landfill activity and find out where things go when we throw them away. See if you can match sustainable building materials with their source. Plant a native seed and take it home… discover how worms can eat your garbage… learn how recycled soda bottles become a fleece jacket.
