Understanding ecosystems and normal animals is essential for children aged 4-7, as it builds a foundation for their appreciation of nature and environmental stewardship. At this young age, children are naturally curious and eager to explore the world around them. Teaching them about ecosystems fosters critical thinking skills as they learn how living and non-living things interact.

Parents and teachers play a pivotal role in guiding this learning process. By introducing basic concepts of ecosystems—such as food chains, habitats, and the importance of biodiversity—they help children recognize the interconnectedness of life. Understanding normal animals, such as those typical to their environment, fosters empathy and respect for wildlife, instilling a sense of responsibility towards nature.

Moreover, engaging children with hands-on activities like nature walks, observing animals, or gardening enhances their emotional well-being and connections to the environment. It empowers them to make informed choices as future stewards of the planet.

By caring about these educational aspects, parents and teachers contribute not only to children's cognitive development but also to their emotional and social growth, nurturing a generation capable of understanding and addressing environmental issues in the future.
