What I used and what they were used for:

• Wood: it was used for the model of the house, the base and was made of spare wood found at the factory.

• Pizza sauce bottle: it was used for the water tank.• Acrytic paint: it was used to paint the grass and

fence.• Clay: to hold down the paddle pop sticks and for

the bird bath.• Home soil: it was used for the garden & plants.

Things to think about:

• How can you reduce energy usage in your home? How can you make your home eco-friendly, and all on a limited budget? Good point lets look at the following examples that have been prepared for you shall we:

SOLAR POWER

• Solar heating will provide

energy for your house in many

ways. It can heat water at the

most basic level. Solar energy is

pure, clean energy. As an

added bonus, the surplus

energy can be transferred to a

battery and stored for later use;

however, be aware that this will

increase your costs

considerably, depending on the

size of the battery.

• These will keep you from

leaving a room without

turning the lights off.

Outdoors, they can save a lot

of money on wasted

electricity but will illuminate

your pathway to the door

when needed. These are also

good burglar deterrents, as

the sudden switching on of a

light is very disconcerting

when unexpected.

Consider using

motion sensor light

bulbs for both

indoors and

outdoors.

• This will allow natural sunlight

to illuminate your house for

free, especially over rooms that

are the darkest. Sunlight is

more powerful than any bulb,

so the light will flow through

much of the room where the

skylight is installed. Or add in

sun lights which will provide

lights in the day time. Instal l

skyl ights in

your roof.

More examples:

WATER TANK• A water tank is used to save

fresh, natural water by rain better than using tap water and paying bills when knowing it could be free and eco friendly to you and the environment.

WIND MILL• A windmill is an engine that

uses the wind as a source of power. Windmills are designed to take the energy of the wind and convert it into something useful.

• Now I would like you think a little deeper about a small policy that you should already know:
