It offers topical information about the environment through interactive, fun, educational games and activities that utilize participants' willingness to learn. Children are encouraged to form their own opinions, make decisions, get involved and understand the impact their own actions have on the environment.

Animated, leading-edge technology engages children's minds in the EcoKids Online tree house, where they discover Fun n' Games, the EcoKids Club, Eco-Info, Storybooks, an art Gallery, an environmental forum and much more.”
