Selena's Desert Park

Inspired after a viewing Mara Mintzer's TedTalk about Growing Up Boulder's work, five-year-old Selena of Dubai crafted her own model of a park. In her video, Selena shows us around the educational features of the park while teaching us about desert animals and the importance of recycling.
Watch this well-researched video by Selena as she explains the features of her park.  Not only is it educational, it's creative and so much fun!

This is a mural that features desert plants and animals. A viewer would push a button to hear an explanation of the habitat!
